Remember, I don't like grading you any more than you like being graded, and ultimately your grade in this class does not matter, at least no where nearly as much as you might think it does. What does matter is how much you learn - if you are getting a poor grade, it most likely reflects a failure to give the course the attention and effort it deserves and requires in order to properly facilitate that learning. Don't try to cheat your way to an empty and meaningless grade - come talk to me and we'll see if we can't repair your learning methodology to earn you a better one!
