I never much cared for grades. The only thing that mattered to me was if I understood the material or not. It didn't matter if I had an A on everything prior to the final and if I only needed a 40 on the final to pass. I still study my butt off and do more problems to make sure that I learned the material and retain it. I know that not every student does what I do but are the bad students really this bad? If so then how did they make it to university? I just don't understand. Honestly though, I do consider myself a bad student. At least in math I am. The more math I take, the less I understand. I'm way more talented in the arts than I am in math to be honest. I chose to stick with mathematics because it was more challenging to me.
I got accepted into Cornell's art program. They had a really nice financial package and I was on the verge of accepting it but chose not to accept it as I wanted to learn more about mathematics. Even though I originally majored in aerospace engineering at UT-Austin, I chose engineering because my father wanted me to be an engineer. Then I quickly changed to mathematics and have been in love with the subject ever since! Now that you've introduced me to quantum mechanics, I'm not so scared of chemistry and physics anymore. I am very greatful for you teaching me all that you have so far!
As an instructor, I should explain ... We don't grade on EFFORT. Imagine you took your car into a repair shop to get a brake job. You pull out, hit the brakes and smash into a tree. You go back to the shop where the repairman tells you "I worked really hard on your brakes. It usually takes a hour, but I spent four hours. How can you complain?" This is the real world. Everyone doesn't get a trophy.
When you first start out in college and watch these vids, you side with the professors. Then, when you see just how much it truly costs, you side more with the students. :/
"And I was even suspicious that part of your term paper was plagiarized, because in that mess of garbage there were 3 sentences that actually made sense"
Students did not pay to get an A. They paid to get credit for their learning by presenting evidence of that learning through work and thorough evaluation.
Student: I thought Turdgarnisher was the capital of New Hampshire! Professor: This university is in Concord. We're literally two blocks away from the State Capitol
A relative of mine who is also a professor told me that she accidentally assigned a test and essay on the same day. She didn’t mean to do that but the funny part was the string of emails she showed me the day of from students. Apparently she killed 12 grandmas that day. The departments record for for grandparents killed is 23.
She experienced losing a grandmother 12 times this semester!!! That's horrible! Most people only ever experience losing a grandmother twice! What an evil professor for not showing any compassion!
@angelifyification "how long until my sabbatical." Sabbatical is like a year off that college professors get every few years. The computer program that does the audio did mispronounce it, though.
A professor who passes a student who was too lazy to learn delivers no service to that student by passing him/her. The student will just be a burden to the next professor, and the student will continue to struggle in those classes because they did not have the background necessary to pass those higher classes. If a student did not learn, if they are not ready for the next level, they should not be passed. In fact, many of those students dare blame their previous professors for "not teaching them" to be prepared to their current level of struggle. But they want to be passed at each level. Even though they know they haven't learned...
Take a drink of whatever you have whenever she says "extra credit" and "i am a good student" you'll be hydrated (or dehydrated if it's soda or some other soft drink) in about 2 minutes
My lowest grade I'm fairly sure was a C, and that was because I am horrible in ELA. My most recent tests, I believe have been 100, 101, 95, 88, and 81. Even now I struggle to improve myself, but I try. And that is most of the battle. Autism doesnt help either. So, I would like to apoligize for my harsh wording and practically making this sound like a drama speech, but I just don't want to hear that excuse anymore.
+PaintedDoll How about a professor who fails you at the last minute because even though you have an A average in the class, you failed to do two "optional readings"? Professors aren't always correct. He was chastised by the Dean of the College.
Performance is the way to measure your level at anything...in school, the simplest and easiest way to analyze your level of intelligence or ability in a specific subject is through tests. You need to find a field you are good at performing in; that is the key.
LOL I have a friend that teaches at a community college. She tells me stories & have read few papers that students have turned in.One was an F that a student was contesting. That paper was so bad it was like a joke,like someone writing a joke paper to make fun of stupid people. This student had the nerve to not only turn it in but to contest the grade. Amazing what students nowadays think should pass. What is going on in HS nowadays that allows students this bad to graduate?
This would be better if it was an X-Rated version where he suggests that if she puts out right there in the office (and she goes through with it) she'll get a passing grade.
This is why I was thankful to share an office with the other faculty. None of my students ever dared such nonsense since not only would they be making an ass out of themselves to me, but then also to everyone else in the dept.
As a current Autistic 8th grader, I say hogwash. Freaking hogwash. I remember when I was in the 7th grade, I used to stay up until 2AM every night, never studied or did homework, and did horribly. The last grades I got were medical excuses and D's. I wanted to change that. About a few weeks ago, my grandfather died. On his deathbed, he said he was proud of my improving grades. I took it to heart. Every night now I do my homework. It helps alot.
It's amazing. At my high school, we have some really smart kids but if you are in an honors class they love you, if you are in a level 1 class you are ok, if you are in a level 2 class they don't give you a chance. I know that they are many smart kids that are in level 2 class, but because of the system,they will never become something else.
Yes, however many things depend on teachers as well. For example, everybody used to study history in our class, but everyone hated chemistry. That's because the teacher of history knew, how to raise interest in pupils and the teacher of chemistry did his best to kill all the interest. If a pupil fails a subject, the teacher is more to blame in many cases.
I am a good student I am a good student I am a good student I am a good student I am a good student I am a good student I am a good student I am a good student
Students need to understand that there is not some fixed one-to-one ratio between time spent and grade earned. Instructors have an idea how much time an assignment should take, within a range of variation, depending on the student's previous competence and personal habits. But when you have a student complain: "I spent four hours rewriting this! Why have I still got a B?" when an assignment is designed to take about an hour, you have to explain, "If it took you four hours, something is wrong."
It's very strange, that you assume I'm a pupil. And perhaps the teachers try their best in the U.S.A, but that is not the case in the post soviet world. I can bet my head, that several teachers, that I had at school, didn't know their subject at all. And they demanded bribes from parents.
I'm glad the professor is sticking to his guns, he seems reasonable for the most part. But shame on him for making the comment about McDonald's, what an insult! After the girl made that horrible offer to wash the car naked, if I were the professor I would've just snapped at her and wished she'd leave the office immediately.
I’m a good student, hey, I’m a good student, everybody, I’m a good student, how, I’m a good student, is, I’m a good student, everyone, I’m a good student, doing?
“I’m a good student”
“You got a 13%”
Better than zero

If I don't get an A my rowing coach will be really pissed off.
Really? We don't even have a rowing crew at this university.
Extra credit.
Why do u deserve extra credit?
Every time she says, "I'm a good student!" like it's going to change any-damn-thing, take a sip of whatever drink you have.
If I did that, I'd be dead
I dont have a drink XD
But she's a good student
AliPapa (Takes a drink).
Oooh, I'm going to grab a vodka cranberry and re-watch this now.
'You could had taken a dump on a sheet of paper and gotten a better grade"

Your seven emails from last year suggest otherwise

My art teacher showed this to my class today. I love my art teacher.
"And I was even suspicious that part of your term paper was plagiarized, because in that mess of garbage there were 3 sentences that actually made sense"
I would guess this happens hundreds of times every year. Yes, this exact conversation.....
"blended family" 🤣
Lawl, the Great Plains in the Great Airport.
I would put that answer on purpose just to be funny XD
That kind of statement gives off big-time Paisley from A.N.T. Farm vibes 😂
"Extra credit."
*"NO."*
I have a tradition of watching this video before or during finals week
Same here
@@olympianstar1406 I like how blunt the teacher is. That guy gives zero fucks 😂😂

Teachers hear it all...trust me! amazing right?

wasted 4 yr olds lol
Students did not pay to get an A. They paid to get credit for their learning by presenting evidence of that learning through work and thorough evaluation.
"you could have taken a dump on the sheet and gotten a better grade" lol
I'm a prof, and I've had almost identical conversations. Far too many of them in fact.
"You wrote that the Great Plains were located in the Great Airport" I'm dead.

People should come up with more varied excuses...
I am personally responsible for the deaths of between 50 and 60 grandparents.
"...Unless the school specializes teaching students how to paint lions on the highway or hot to cut meat." LMAO I diiiiied
Extra credit. I am a good student. I demand to talk to your supervisor.
NO
She experienced losing a grandmother 12 times this semester!!! That's horrible! Most people only ever experience losing a grandmother twice! What an evil professor for not showing any compassion!
*Even after all these years, this video is still hilarious! I miss old school UA-cam.*
Take a shot every time she says "Extra Credit" or "I am a good student" :D
Take a shot every time she says "I am a good student."
But the great planes are located in the great airport lol
Haha- The Great Plains are in the Great Airport.
That was actually a clever answer!
@@crosstolerance it really was tbh
It actually took me a few seconds for that one to register. Got a good laugh once it did

What really bothers me is that the teachers never ask the student if they are suffering from ADHD.
The end of the term is a very dangerous time for grandmothers, aunts, and grandparents.
Student wants to become a lawyer, but she does not provide needed proof. Dismissed.
I hear "My life will be ruined" all the time! So much drama it's funny.
***** You can do extra credit.

6 years later and I’m back watching this masterpiece again 😂 💀 👍 xD
i am a good student. extra credit
I look good in a short skirt; I'm a good student. I am promiscuous; I am a good student. I am a cheerleader; I am a good student.
I can't count how many times she said I am a good student
"extra credit!" LOL

y do they keep getting up slightly and sitting back down.
Who makes these videos? THEY'RE AWESOME
The website where you could make these videos has been shut down for the time being sadly :(
***** They're trying to get it back up and running, though.
Pixie Dust when?
This is because almost all jobs need some form of higher education and students who shouldn't be in college/university are registering.
A 13 percent in geography?! OOF 🤦
If she says "extra credit" or "I am a good student" one more freaking time
This is why I was thankful to share an office with the other faculty. None of my students ever dared such nonsense since not only would they be making an ass out of themselves to me, but then also to everyone else in the dept.
Why doesn't he tell her to sue him on Judge Judy? Bookies would wager 50-1 that she'd end up crying.
By "prevent bad things", I don't mean "go in the past to prevent bad things before they happen", but actually "fix current bad things".

“... your professor was a disgusting waste of space.”
"Extra credit. I am a good student." ROFLMAO!
"Extra-credit, because I am a good student". She said that for at least 20 times.
Lol my teacher showed us the bear video and then the thumbnail showed up so I went home and watched this lol XD
Omg...I did have a student who just turned in doodling for the exam.
However many times this may end up in student loosing his motivation. That's where the teacher's mastery is of crucial importance.
It's amazing.

Damn, I was hoping she woulda put out for that A. I guess she doesn't really NEED it.

"Extra Credit!": 6
Aaaay look this man made it, he switched his majors tho
"The Great Planes" XD

But her grandmother is a time lord, so she could have died, then regenerated, multiple times.

Where is the part where she scuffs her knees for extra credit?
I was waiting for the excuse of "But I was a Common Core student." That would have been a exceptionable response.
Best video of this type that I watched so far!!!!!!
And what's up with the pronunctiation? "Styoodent"?
It's very strange, that you assume I'm a pupil. And perhaps the teachers try their best in the U.S.A, but that is not the case in the post soviet world. I can bet my head, that several teachers, that I had at school, didn't know their subject at all. And they demanded bribes from parents.
Does any one sleep their way to good grades anymore or is it done these day by whining your way to and "A"?
I'm glad the professor is sticking to his guns, he seems reasonable for the most part. But shame on him for making the comment about McDonald's, what an insult! After the girl made that horrible offer to wash the car naked, if I were the professor I would've just snapped at her and wished she'd leave the office immediately.
I would say "okay you get an A." and when she says "really" I'd say "psych!" and laugh as she bursts into tears.
Ok
She said "I am a good student" 8 times.
