Today, and for the past three months, I've been stuck in a group project with three students who spend 90% of their time talking to each other. This project is mandatory to graduate, and a team effort is practically required in order to do well. I can already feel senioritis kicking in. FML

Gather all of the evidence you can and petition your teacher. If they decide to be lazy, go over their heads. Don’t let other people drag you down.

Most teachers will allow some form of leniency or change to a group project if they find out people are outright not contributing. and if they do not, go to the principle/dean and petition them. I had a couple "Completion" grades on projects in high-school. I got class average without the weight of non helpful classmates. some teachers offered to give completion or solo grade for work provided and do some calculation for number of people in a group so none of us were effected good or bad for others work. but I always had to go to the teacher myself for it.

Do all the work yourself, control freak! Your partners are likely incompetent idiots and their efforts will likely drag down your brilliant work. Everyone will be better off if you just hijack the entire project by yourself.
