I have so much to do! And one problem after another keeps cropping up with professors. I don't know what it is with my professors this semester. I haven't had as many issues in six years of college as I've had with now FOUR different professors this semester. I think it's just bad luck. But three of them are no longer an issue - everything's been happily resolved. This last one actually isn't as bad as the first three, but it might just be affecting me this badly because it's riding in on the tails of those others.
But she isn't even READING my work - I caught her in lies about "missing info" that was clearly cited on THREE different pages. Once in a table, for crying out loud. And yet she gave me an F on the assignment!!! I'm going to contest it as far as I can, take it to the dean if necessary. It dropped my grade from an A to a C. I'm a 4.0 student who belongs to several honors societies, so this is irksome, to say the least. Worse, this woman waits until the LAST freaking week of classes to bring up the supposed "issues" with my draft, claiming she gave me different feedback (I even looked to make sure, and she specifically stated the opposite of what she's now claiming).
I'm SO tired of having to go to outside offices above profs' heads, though. I've had to do it exactly ONCE before, 3 1/2 years ago. Now, suddenly, this will be the 3rd time this semester, when I'm about to graduate. WTF???
On the upside, it does look like I actually need to do less work in the course than I'd feared. I don't know what this instructor's problem is. She's getting a very bad review from me, that's for sure - both on her course eval, and on RateMyProfessor.com.
I just want to get through the next few days and be able to be my best in my SIX other classes without feeling like some psycho is (inexplicably!!!) holding a hatchet over my grade, or about crazy, unpredictable idiots and disasters, period. I just need to get through this last 5-day stretch - and fly out!

You should be optimistic and learn to cope up with such
circumstances.
