Finals only positively affect Grades


Finals only positively affect Grades
The Issue
We were given two snow days, no time to review for any class whatsoever. Four exams in one day two days consecutively sounds unfair.
It is unjustified if we are required to take exams if they do not positively impact our grade. How are we able to find answers to things we were doubting if we had no access to any teachers for the past two days?
Students should not get penalized for a natural event, we are not responsible for the heavy snow that occurred in Saint Louis.
It is unnecessary stress for the students. If the students are happy with their current grade, why penalize them for it? They worked hard all semester to achieve that grade, but because of two snow days, there's a possibility of it dropping severely. The teachers have more stuff to grade now in a shorter amount of time because of the snow days as well.
This is a set-up for failure, authorities should not condone this set-up.
