Petition Letter

Petition Letter: My Econ 222 001 is COMPLETELY overlapped with my Econ 232. This wasn't an issue until we had in-class midterms. I cannot miss an in person midterm to attend a MANDATORY history lecture and vice versa. I need to be swapped into Econ 222 002. I've never had an econ midterm be in class. Please let me switch my section.

Academic Plan

Academic Plan: I need to excel in both 222 and 232.. these are 2 mandatory core courses being placed at the exact same time. I've been attending the 002 section lectures instead of the 001 lectures to offset this time conflict but this in-class midterm is an issue for me.

I didn't know when my midterms were for sure because of the removal of my syllabus (which I've kept asking for and no one seems to be responding to my email about where this syllabus is; not the prof, not the TA. If it was mentioned in class, I wouldn't have known) but through an email last week, I found out that it was during class.

My academic plan is to excel in both of these courses and go to grad school. I want to do better to offset my poor gpa from first year.
