Today, I went through my spam folder. I found out that I'd received several emails telling me that I have been sending emails containing essays for a class of mine to the wrong address. The term ended yesterday. FML

I see the meeting going something like this: Professor: I'm afraid I'm going to have to give you an F. OP: No! I'll lose my scholarship! Isn't there SOMETHING I can do? Professor: Well, there is ONE thing. OP: Oh, professor! Your shirt is so tight... Baw wah oh waoh wah oh wah /bad **** music poorly transliterated

Shit, that sucks man! at least you should still be able to prove you had sent the email with the attachment! I'm sure if you show it to them, they might let you off the hook!

FYL and YDI. You could have checked to make sure you were sending it to the right place, so YDI. However, your professor might not have given you the correct address, a typo or something. FYL for that. But be more specific next time so I can vote properly will ya?

Are you implying that there is a magical transformation from stupid, clueless high schooler to mature, responsible college student? Ha! Haha! Bahahahaha! Sorry. "Responsible" and "college student" are often mutually exclusive.

I just can't envision making it thru a semester with nothing turned in and not having gotten warnings about ur grade or checked your grade yourself. I mean- profs usually give back graded work and you can check your grades periodically through the semester. I can't see this being anything but fake honestly. if anyone puts effort into work, they get slightly suspicious if they never get a grade back thru a whole semester?

OP could have been in an online class. therefore, no returned work. That said, it is op's fault for not staying on top of his grades.

If it was an online class, than grades should be online somewhere as well, and it's OPs fault for not checking.

I've taken online classes, and the class has a dropbox we use to upload our work. It shows the submission status instantly and sends an email confirmation to my student email address. It seems odd to be emailing assignments, and the OP is really lazy if they couldn't be bothered to confirm receipt.

Up until this semester, my uni course had all the assignments submitted by email. It's only now that they've gone to the drop-box plagiarism checker type system that you get any acknowledgement at all. Under the old system, the feedback or even acknowledgement you'd get would be really intermittent, depending on the lecturer. I only found out that one of mine had gone missing when my final grade for the subject was published, and was disproportionately low, based on the assignments I had got back before. I can completely see this happening, especially if it's a new student.

ydi for not paying attention.

One time after my second interview with a company I sent thank-you emails and they kept getting sent back. I couldn't figure out why, then I realized I had spelled the company name wrong! (Nielson instead of Nielsen). That means the handwritten thank-you's I sent after the first interview were probably wrong too. I have a master's degree in math/stats and had straight A's in college; I swear I'm not stupid. Everyone makes silly mistakes sometimes. Hopefully your teacher will give you credit somehow.
