If my periodic score in this class is lower than I wish it to be, what should I do?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

Faced with a lower-than-desired periodic score, the question prompts us to consider actionable steps to improve performance. 
Option 1: 'Change my study strategy.' This suggestion is practical and proactive. It implies analyzing current methods, identifying gaps, and trying new approaches (e.g., time management, active learning, practice problems, seeking feedback). It directly targets improving outcomes and aligns with evidence-based study behaviors. 
Option 2: 'Keep doing what I am doing.' If the current approach isn’t yielding the desired results, persisting with the same strategy is unlikely to produce improvement. This option reflects a passive stance and ignores the need for adjustment after underperforming work. 
Option 3: 'Beg.' This choice introduces a distracting and inappropriate dynamic. Begging is not a constructive or reliable method for improving academic performance, and it does not address the underlying learning requirements or help develop essential study skills. 
Option 4: 'Tell the Prof that I need an A for my GPA so that I can go to grad school and that if the Prof does not "give" me an A, it will ruin the rest of my life.' This statement is problematic for several reasons: it frames the situation as coercive, relies on external pressure rather than demonstrated mastery, and suggests a misunderstanding of evaluation processes. It also creates an unhealthy student–instructor dynamic and is not a credible or ethical strategy for grade improvement. 
In summary, the most constructive route is to reassess and adjust study strategies (Option 1), while the other options either fail to address the root cause, rely on inappropriate behavior, or miscast the dynamics of assessment and grade attainment.
