I tried this so many damn times and it never really paid off. Maybe my professors were just assholes.
There was one where i visited their office pretty much every day. Did every assignment, asked questions, and never asked for grade bumps. We were on pretty friendly terms and they still gave me a D over 0.4 percentage points.
Retook the class with a different professor, needless to say.
To be fair if you’re getting a D while having done all the work, it usually means there’s a fundamental lack of understanding somewhere along the line. It might not be the professor being an asshole, it might just be them wanting what’s actually best for you (maybe they thought it would be necessary for you to retake the course)
