I don't know exactly how I pulled this off... well, okay, I guess I do. I did not finish all my assignments on time, but I emailed the instructor a week-and-a-half out of the end date, letting him know that I hadn't gotten things done, that I felt that I had bitten off more than I could chew comfortably, and what other things were vying for my time (family life, new promotion, Platoon Sergeant duties). He told me that he had gone Warrant while he was in specifically to avoid PSG BS, so he's give me some leeway...
I did all but two assignments, carefully calculated to give me a solid 'C'. I couldn't bring myself to half-ass those other assignments; they were already very late and I don't feel I deserve a better grade, to be honest.
I think I got a 'B'. He gave a bunch of extra credit (I think) for doing *three* of the quizzes each chapter instead of the two required. So shamtastic, though, as those "quizzes" can be done over and over and over until they're right... it even tells you which ones you got wrong so you can go back and do them correctly.
:/
I keep saying, "I think," because he hasn't really posted final grades. He has me listed as 880/900 points... but has an 88% next to it, which seems to indicate that he thinks there were 1000 points.
Either way, my GPA doesn't go down, but my confidence in the system does.
