i just graduated college last weekend.
don't skip class
sit in the front row
converse with the teacher before/after classes
it's worth as much as a full letter grade. I even slept in the front row, didn't matter, the teacher knew me and liked me. Therefor i get a better grade than all the kids in the back row.
Don't get the wrong impression about professors not learning you name. There are a lot of students in classes today and it isn't always possible. Any good teacher, however, will learn it before the end of the semester.
For example, last semester I taught 7 courses at the college at which I work and 2 at the college from which I graduated. In all I had over 250 students, in 6 different English classes. It was a bitch learning all their names but I got most of them.
We do remember faces and who comes to class or not. Where you sit and what you do in class can have a BIG impact on borderline grades. ;)
... Only 7 more days of High School...
I suppose that is a point - but even if I tried I could not bring myself to sit in the front row. My preferred place in any classroom/lecture hall is the very back row corner seat - I guess I have a problem with people being behind me or around me. I can't handle it and wouldn't feel comfortable.Quote:
