Hey Guys,

Just got my half yearly report today and believe one of my subjects ranks are wrong.

From doing calculations with the correct weighting of all the tasks so far, i have worked out that i am ahead by 0.05%. Along with this, my year coordinator has made a few comments about me being 1st for the subject since our half yearly exams.

What do i do? I don't want to come across as rude as my teacher is also a part of the executive, and also don't want to seem like i'm making a big deal over such a small difference in marks.

Thanks

You won't come across rude unless you demand it. Just ask to see whether your marks have been entered correctly. Most people are reasonable.

Your marks are what really matter - your school submits a final mark for you, then BOS will rank you according to the final school marks. They don't just submit a rank. As long as the marks are correct, it doesn't really matter what rank has been printed on your report (unless it's significant and may affect things like scholarships or whatever)

Don't we get to check what BOS has as our final ranks anyway? and try to get something rectified in the event when we believe its not correct?
