Extra credit in university is a godsend. My grade just went from a B- to a B+ and there's a major discrepancy in GPA fr those two marks.

Let this be a suggestion to do your extra credit assignments if your teacher offers you it.

I hope I just wasted some of your time reading this and for others, I don't know why I posted this.

In any case, I thought it was appropriate to share at 5:40 AM.

Well, it's good advice I guess? Extra credit can't do much wrong so. Also, I think this would also be the first thing for me to do around 5:40 AM.

Yea, Extra credit can be a godsend when your only a few points from a different letter grade.

Maybe it's just because I've been enrolled 2-3 years, but very few of my professors give extra credit anymore. Very few grade on a curve, either.

Extra Credit is how I survive college, has saved my Scholarship more than once

Very few, which is why you should take the rare opportunity should you have the fortune of doing some.

I never did extra credit. It seems the only classes I ever had that offered it were classes that were easy and it wasn't worth it. The difficult and useful classes didn't give that option.

I suppose you have noticed a pattern.

I was going to say this as well.

Extra credit? I don't know if anywhere in the UK does this, but I have never encountered it in my education ever. It's a case of, if you fuck up, you fuck up. However, at University we have this thing called mitigating circumstances. In some modules you can be given an extension/or a safety net of, if you fail, you can retake without being capped at the minimal pass mark. This is only for extreme circumstances (like hospitalisation etc). However, the American education system is vastly different from England's. I cannot speak for all of the UK as it differs per country.
