Re:

no i'm just really depressed; i failed two classes this semester already and i wouldn't have failed one of them if i could turn everything in when i thought it was due

i thought both the online assignments and the assignments due in person were due tomorrow but they were due last night for the online assignments and at noon today for the in person ones and i didn't turn in any of them

i could have gotten an A or B if everything was due tomorrow it's too late now though

Re:

it would've been easy if i had been doing it throughout the semester

i saved a lot of assignments for the end of the semester

Re:

Can you talk to your professors for an extension?
Also, get a planner. Or a desk calendar. Something.

Re:

Life goes on drizz. That's awful news and I sympathize but it's a love and learn scenario too. As hard as it is to enact discipline you hate complying to, getting stuff done ASAP is the way to go. And learn to engage in the assignments.

There's no three-strikes-you're done for rule here; reflect on ways you can improve your work flow and attitude towards making it happen. And ask for help before it's too late with absolutely no shame.

Re:

Um, is the penalty for a 1-day late assignment seriously enough to knock you down 3 letter grades?

Re:

It's shocking to me the differences in countries, schools or even individual professors at a school, for late penalties.

I'm used to either "A full letter grade per day" or "It's late, so zero"

i know of a professor who treats projects like this (for a programming class): you get like 5% if your project runs. you get 95% if it works completely. if any single test case fails, you get a 5%, but you can resubmit after the fact and take a late penalty. i know a kid who has him and resubmitted one of his projects cuz he got 5%, and it failed 1 test case. the previous 5% that he had got overwritten to a 0% because of that late penalty. l o l

Re:

Intro programming classes are usually run like that. If your code is so inundated with errors that you can't even get it to compile, you don't deserve points.

The fact that a single test case failing = 5% also leads me to believe it's an intro class since, that's not even expected on a professional level.

i only turned in about 30% of the work, and since 12:00 p.m. was the last time to turn the rest of the assignments in, i stayed at 30%

however i did a lot more work that i didn't turn in because i didn't finish those assignments
