there's a concerning number of people in these comments that are like proud of the fact that they're uneducated.
The difference between most people that say that and this woman is that this woman was self evidently not completely fucking off during school like she just wasn't doing math or hard science because it's hard and people don't like to have to learn quantitative things
Most people who don't graduate don't graduate because they are just fucking around and doing nothing
This happened to me! My trig teacher midway through the last trimester in HS told me I was going to fail if I didn't REALLY turn it around. And I tried! But I still failed at 63%. I didn't know until I got to graduation bc finals were a day before. she immediately found me when I got there, told me I failed by 2%, but that she could see I was trying. So she let me go through with the required 65%.
The numbers might be a little off, but the points are: it was by the skin of my teeth and a little bit of teacher-given Grace.
I transferred schools and the semester before my last one, I was told that the English 101 I'd automatically been credited with because of my high school AP class wasn't gonna cut it.
So, I'd been concentrating on science classes + the format for those papers was different from humanities papers … I got an F on my first paper because the stupid footnote-format was wrong, freaked out, dropped the class. So, had to bone up on the humanities format + take the class my last semester – I got an A and graduated, but
I still have nightmares about it – And that was 50 years ago!
I received my diploma with a paper still due in two weeks which was my little secret. The Dean of my school called about it and my father answered. My laughter only made it worse.
I remember taking my Japanese final and struggling with it. A few days later, I had my graduation ceremony and I had no clue how I did on the exam. I kept thinking that they wouldn’t actually call my name. 😂 they finally did but my buttcheeks were clenched the entire first half of the ceremony.

I walked at graduation but I had to take a few more credits to pass over the summer
That was one of those vomit-able moments.
I was today years old when i realized you could be “given” a degree when you want it just because you cried and begged for it. This is actually crazy
"It was all plagiarized."
"Of course."
🤣
Amy Lost it 😂😂😂❤
Samesies 😂🎉

She’s just like me =)
Ahahahhahahaha I LOVE THIIIIISS!! College is a wild time man!! Lol😂😂😅😅
If when I die, Paula Pell isn’t there, then it isn’t heaven
Great story.
The title has me in tears.
You know, props to that professor for giving her the chance to pass like that. One stupid class isn't a reason to hold up someone's life like that.
Oh Paula, we are kindred spirits 😂
What is Paula’s last name?
Omg all I can think of is Sisters and that’s Amy’s sisters’ roommate 😂
It sounds like your professor punished himself.

That’s a great title though! No credit if even that was plagerized
Wow what a boss lol
That title SLAPS.
I just asked Alexa what is microfiche
I did the exact same thing from National Geographic Magazines. Then I had to wash all the beakers and vials in my science class.
In the end C’s and D’s still get degrees.
