Appealing Marks?
Hey,
I'm in first year commerce and got stuck with an abnormally difficult and unfair prof. The class average is prob. around a 50, and i was wondering how i can appeal my mark, any suggestions would help.

Thanks

1) Talk to professor one-on-one. State to them why you feel you deserve a better grade. Have specific examples of why.
3) Contact OMBUDS if you feel uncomfortable talking to your prof one-on-one. And they can invigilate the meeting.
2) If this doesn't work, talk to the department head; and again you can do this with the help of OMBUDS
