New Information: Hello, apologies for the delay life has been busy. So, as I mentioned, in the course I am considering dropping I did not receive any sort of feed back until nov 10 (after the nov 2 deadline) despite the fact we submitted the assignment on oct 2 and had 2 more deliverables prior to the deadline that I have still not received marks for. I had zero indication of my standing in the course prior to the deadline. In a normal circumstance this would be fine but this assignment was worth 17 and was only graded out of 9 marks. Had I known I had done so poorly on this assignment that was worth such a high percentage I would have immediately dropped it. However, I did not know until after the fact. This semester has been very demanding. Over the course of 12 weeks I have been required to submit 40 deliverables (3.3 per week) each of which take about a week to complete as upper year comp sci assignments. In addition, the circumstances surrounding the pandemic including limited access to academic resources and additional responsibilities at home have made this semester incredibly stressful. I am trying to graduate this winter and am hoping to finish out this hectic semester strong. Being able to drop this class will allow me to focus on doing well in my remaining classes and will allow me to maintain better physical and mental health. Currently, I have no time to do anything other than school and I am really starting to feel the repercussions. Sacrificing my gpa and overall well being only to finish with a poor mark in this class seems very unfair when I received no sort of feedback until after nov 2. Thank you for your time and I hope you can empathize with my situation. Please let me know if you require any more information from me. All the best, Grant
