My Reasonable Grade Choice

Dear Mr. Romero,

I really enjoyed these last two semesters with you as my teacher, aside from all our arguments and disagreements. I understand that I am missing maybe 1 or 2 assignments and I am not going to get the same grade I got last semester. I feel as though a B or B- would be a fair grade because it’s hardly ever that I need someone to take pity for me. Also, its not like I am a bad student all around, because I do all my work in all my classes and I am passing all my other classes. I don’t want a bad English grade to mess up my report card. I think that it would be fair enough if you gave me a B but I will explain it more in depth in this letter.

Firstly, I should receive a B because I’ve been off track but I do still try my best its just that I get overwhelmed. I did try to accomplish the Huck Finn packet but I was so worried about NHD and my science experiment. I’m not saying that your assignment wasn’t important to me, but I just forgot. Secondly, its not like I am a bad student all around because I do participate in class, and not just yours, all of them. Also, I have done work in your class and I don’t want an assignment to mess up my whole report card. I really am going to try my best to do all my assignments. I wish I had you next semester to show you how sincere I am being.

In conclusion I believe I should get a B because I am going to learn from my mistakes and be more responsible. Also, I am not going to let any other assignments get in the way of my work. I am passing all of my other classes and I am not a bad student all around. So hopefully, this letter has maybe changed your mind and made you think about the grade you want to give me.
