Teacher Factor

The teacher factor is really strong and you must really have to "get close" to a teacher to get a high grade. Well, I've been in those situations just recently. I realized that there is favoritisms in the class and I really hate it. We'll first of all, the AP presentations were, for most of 2K, unjust in a sort of way because of the grading of the judges. I really didn't see the star quality of the group that was chosen. I really don't get how they grade it. I saw my classmates being shocked that the group was chosen to represent the class. No offense but there is not a note that was on cue, there was nothing good about it. Well, maybe the flute effect worked that time but its still unfair. The other group deserved more to be the representative but I don't know if the group that the judges choice would really have a chance. Now that the competition is getting closer everyday. Hmm.. I wonder. We would have a better grade if I "got close" to the teacher just like what they did. Hmmmm... I wonder....

The second time, it was the religion project. There was a PowerPoint presentation about the Hope for the Flowers. I was really mad to see that a group got a higher grade. The flute thing didn't work. Our teachers comments about their presentation were negative. There was no relation to the Resurrection, there was not a good content. For simpler terms, the PowerPoint was a bust. Then, it was our turn. We had some good comments, and some bad ones as well. There was a good content. The slides had meanings. There was the story of Resurrection. It was a good story. But, when we heard the scores of the presentations, they got a higher score than what we got. The other group who did a lot better than what we had, also got a lower score. I was really outraged when I heard that their presentation had a higher score. I think that there is some kind of favoritism happening in the school and I really don't want to fight about it. There are actually a lot of times that the class experienced favoritism with that same group. I am outraged and hopefully it will end just there. But that experiences really pissed me off and I was not happy with their decisions. Hmm... What if I told the teacher about this? It will definitely make or beak my grades and I don't want to undergo this gamble.
