When I taught, students who had an A in my class could skip the mid term/final (automatic A). This was for a number of reasons:

1) give motivation to students to work hard during the quarter/semester
2) reward them for their success if they did so
3) reduce my grading load

If they took the test, they got the grade.

Grade counts, right?

Or give them the better result of grade before final or grade after final?


Depends... good student? Always comes to class on time? Participates? I'd cut 'em a break, but I'm a bit of a softy when it comes to grading.

Absolutely count the grade and grade him brutally for being a cocky shite. College is a place to learn. Teach him a lesson
