Can you list some things you mucked up? Or are they all spread around your previous posts? Perhaps other people sharing their stories about how they "mucked up" will help a little. I know it will help me. :-)

I mucked up... I didn't get A's. I had professors who gave regular homework (eek) and pop quizzes, both of which screw me over. Pop quizzes especially, because... who do they think they are? The professor thinks that you're going to be totally up to date on his class for every class? Screw that, I have other work to do, and you're not my only class! Roar! Also, I was late on every single history paper I handed in. Those were most of the big things I suppose.

You're right! It does make sense. More than half the people at my college have to go and work the same day as class. For many, it is impossible to learn the material one day, read a chapter at night, and have a pop quiz the next. Of course there are other lazy people that make the hard workers look lazy themselves by giving lame excuses to the professors. The professors eventually get tired of them and take it out on everyone, including the ones with a valid excuse. Any chance the test grades and final compensate for the other grades?
