Always good!

I know a course/paper is bigger but I am reminded of when I type a big reply here or on another forum and accidentally back up or go elsewhere or close the window, etc. and the reply gets eaten and I have to start all over. I work hard to look on the side of (1) I get more practice (2) I get to word it more succinctly/better/shorter, etc. (3) I'm forced to learn patience and perseverance :-) If I were in your place and had to take an incomplete or even fail/take the whole course over, I'd try to see it as an opportunity to do a better job and/or it would be "easier" so I could maybe take an additional class the next semester, not get behind. At my universities, the second grade totally overwrote the first so it didn't show you had not finished/flunked the first one, etc.
