A student decides she needs a decent grade after blowing off the semester. Teachers love this student.
When it comes to the end of the school year, grading finals and research papers can be miserable enough. The inevitable student that pulls in after a 2 month bender in Slacker City makes a professor like me want to stab myself in the brain.
Teachers can relate. If you can't, you will soon. Students are better off to just walk in and say, "I blew it. Can we fix this at all." Save the stories. Spare the excuses.
"ok, who is abraham lincoln?"
"why are you here?" LOL
ahah "you never even talked to me before"
"I was sick" lol
I use to laugh my ass off watching these videos back when I was in 7th grade.
"This is the worst ever. I'm going to tell my boyfriend."
"Great. You'll probably find him at your best friend's apartment."
ROFL
They showed this at my school today and I started crying XD
I had this same conversation at least 100 times when I was clinical professor at at a medical school.This really should cause you grave concern.Welcome to the future.
@@cancelledopinion2158It is super competitive. However, once students are accepted into medical school, they sometimes think that they don’t have to impress anyone anymore, and may slack off as a result.
woooa boy, this reminds me of why i quit teaching and will never step foot in a classroom again. it reminds me of the frat guy i had during one of my last semesters who cried like a baby in my office cause he failed, despite the 10%'s he would make on each test while reeking of booze while he took it.
My grandmother legitimately died during my second year of college. I didn't use it as an excuse for my failures, but I did spiral into binge drinking for a while. While I think it's lame for people to claim their grandparents or whoever died a hundred times throughout their college career, it's another thing entirely to assume that everyone is lying.
I'm a professor and I have to laugh. This happens all the time.
Me too! This literally happens every semester in every class. They always wait until the super last minute even after I write them several times to ask about it.
When I was in high school I would ask myself why a lot of my fellow students are there. I once took a physical science class when I was a senior, it was a sophomore level class. I was amazed how stupid some of the students in the class were. I know this is from college but some students literally do not care about learning anything.
Yes, but high school is not optional, it's mandatory!
These poor saps... I mean, teachers of higher education which is voluntary, not mandatory, are the ones constantly asking these questions about why their students are so uninterested in learning when they CHOSE to be there! :(
"Hey do you have a pin, so I can stab myself and die of blood loss"😂😂 I DIED AT THAT PART HAHAHAHAHA
My grandfather died and I talked with my professors and they helped me through it, but I got the assignments done.
The "Safety Pin" was the funniest part. I laughed so hard my stomach ached this video was sooo funny
I love this! I am a professor at four colleges and you would not believe what we have to hear. I show this video to so many classes I teach! ha The one about Abraham Lincoln reminds me of when I was in college and a student got up in speech class and gave a speech about our first president-Abraham Lincoln. True story.
Even if this teacher gave extra credit, she probably wouldn't even do it or do it poorly. She just wants to have the feeling of knowing that even if everything is going wrong for her, there would always be some safety net that could save her any any point.
Our Professor showed us this the Other day. Needless to say we can't give any excuse about our Dead Grandmothers and our Cheating Boyfriends or Being sick.
Well he said he already turned in final grades. So even if he wanted to help, he couldn't.
I fell sorry for all professors who put up with this stupidity from students
"Between cheating on your boyfriend and killing your grandparents" 😂
I cant stop laughing! coz a fellow team member has as many excuses as Sandy - so its a widely occurring phenomenon!! never their responsibility or fault!
Do professors really get this kinda of crap from students? I can't imagine anyone being this dullard in real life...
With some students I've met, I wouldn't be shocked.
ecworlf,
as a lecturer at the University level for almost 30 years, I can tell you that this is mild compared to the stuff I've heard.
I can't imagine profs that actually give extra credit. Is that actually a thing in some universities or do some students think they can ask for this? Because every one of these I've seen the students ask for extra credit. I feel like asking for extra credit to go from an B+ to A- at some point just to see what they'd say.
criticalthinkersarescarce Smith Really? I've had a few, but mostly for one thousand level classes. Although, once, for a junior level class, the assignments added up to 120%, giving me some leeway to screw up.
Speaking as a college teacher, yes we do get this kind of crap from students all the time. What protects us when we refuse to re-open assignments or give extra credit is our syllabus. It is a binding contract.
But, she was sick.
I take solace knowing that others had endured what I have. Cheers.
"You can appeal to the Lord Almighty but no one can save your grade in this course."
I love that Pr.
LMAO it just kept getting better
"My Grandmother died'. That happens way to much in college :P
The typical conversation my world history teacher has with 80% of kids in my class.
If you go to your professor right away with your problem they are surprisingly supportive as long as you're not full of ****. If you show you care about their class and you're actually trying they will often care too.
Agreed; my classes tend to look like a ghost town shortly after refunds are distributed. Personally I would much rather become educated in order to receive a high paying job. The student loans will come due, and that is one loan I do NOT want to default on.
This video makes me laugh. I knew people like this in college and it was amazing with the excuses they came up with to explain why their dedication to the course was sub par. Makes me really feel for the professor. What's worse is working *with* people like this on projects! They are always "busy" and don't contribute sufficient work. Thank God for peer reviews. ;)
I really wish more profs were like that....All jokes aside, personally I think that is part of the problem in society today. Over time there seems to be this constant growth of self entitlement and whether that stems from the parent, or if it is picked up by the kid I am unsure but there really seems to be an increase. Now, educators can't even look irritated without someone freaking out. No clue what there is to be entitled about exactly and not going to waste my time trying to figure it out :)
Story of my life
This reminds me of a certain girl in my class. "I was sick"
even though she failed her class at least she was honest.
This is my life.
Mine, too! I cannot tell you the crazy excuses I hear all the time! Arrrgghhhh!
Mine too - it's funny looking from the outside. Not so funny dealing with these slackers every day!
This video is a great lessons for all of us
These types of videos hit different when you're eating 😋
University and college ain't no joke
THIS IS SO F-ING TRUE!!!
I teach psychology and I hear this from students often.
Of course it's not his problem...neither is anything of the student's life outside the classroom. Either the student makes the classes scheduled or he doesn't. If he doesn't - he gets to take the class over again. Too bad. Life is rough. Stop hoping your teachers will make it easy. Hint: They already do.
@purplewowies We all do, but that's why this video was made...
Students will have these sorts of discussions at the end of the semester instead of working something out. It raises an eyebrow on so many levels because it's still their responsibility to work something out if special circumstances exist; since the teacher is taking care of hundreds of students it's the student's job to make personal contact. If the teacher makes this difficult then we can say the teacher is bad. But not before.
🤣🤣🤣🤣 my life... do u have a safety pin?
I like the background music
Why wont you just go away
Ahahahaha " Im going to tell my boyfriend" "Youll probably find him at your best friends apartment."
YES, so SO good!!!
Lol I luv how she said.....I was sick -.-
I love the safety pin part
fantastic video. i have had a conversation kinda like this with a student before
THAT REMINDS ME OF ONE OF THE BOYS IN MY CLASS
Do you have a safety pin?
Red skull: you are FAILING!! 11
lol "why won't you go away?"
The biggest excuse I've heard is "I didn't know"... The student could have asked their classmates, e-mail their professors, or look at their syllabus. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
What is this app? I love these...
I would've helped you two months ago while you were cheating on your boyfriend and killing your grandparents HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA :'D
"Do you have a safety pin?" LOL
i thought so too....the students got the idea.....
The prof has awesome hair. Like Ryan Gosling awesome!
one of the best comments ever on youtube
I like this teacher
I found this while writing an e-mail to a prof about blowing off the last two papers we had and asking if it was possible to still get a C. I really just hate the class, but I'm spinning it like I'm busy with work and all that. I thought a D would still count as passing, but apparently not in the stupid core required class. FECK. I hate grades and papers and myself for being so lazy and unmotivated and going to college for no good reason. Rant over...
I know this is like 11 years later but question: Why did you even go to college if you didn't want to do the hard work?
A students are usually those who know how to know (KH2K) and apply it
B students are generally those who KH2K but don't consistently advance it
C students often don't KH2K, they do great in certain areas but not in other areas
D students often don't KH2K, get confused and frustrated leading to disinterest
F students often don't care to know
Armis is great for C and D students because it provides a process to learn how to KH2K.
Knowing how to know is the key to meaningful intelligence
Oh men! These teachers don't play, bro.This is not a game, this is serious
This is so true - check out my group Student Excuses on Facebook - real excuses sent to teachers from real students (names have been changed) - ask to join if you like to laugh....
In this case I wouldn't blame the teacher because no matter how good of an excuse she had, the grades were already permanently in and he couldn't do anything about it.
WHY DO THESE VIDS ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO DO WITH A GRANDMOTHER
They could reasonably die while you're away at college. Their death is, therefore, the go-to fake catastrophe.
Gods, it sounds like the people sleeping in the seats near me in Geology
Whats the name of the song in the background its stuck in my head :D
@Joyteller Really? And I am going off to Grad school for this?
Oh well...
I've been reading research papers for 27 hours.
THIS IS HILARIOUS!!!
Hilarious!
My son is a first year university student and in one of his courses, the prof was handing back tests and all the failures had McDonald's and Wendy's job application forms stapled to them.....fucking brilliant!
I think it was just one of the XtraNormal presets.
University ain't no joke
I found this pretty hilarious, but I really hope professors don't insult their students like that, no matter how terrible their performance is in class.
YOU SHALL NOT PASS!
Higher education is a joke.
failing my topology and analysis class atm. I dont feel bad though, most of the class failed and my lecturer said he designed the class so everyone fails
+Happyduderawr Let me guess, the only people who didn't fail were the asians and jews?
Excuse me? We're all human who makes mistakes like everyone else. And I telling you as a college student who works hard like everyone else and has their struggles in class and certain subjects.
I like math but it can be extremely difficult. I struggled in Calculus 3. How are you doing today?
Typical failing student 'attempted' excuses
@OswaldvonWolkenstein You're probably right.
Loooool the videos I click on.....
@OswaldvonWolkenstein Yeah, he would. Academia is f*cked up beyond description.
I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING!!! XD
I LOVE IT!!
You need to be passing not failing.
@mochafudgetruffle I'm a very successful full time student at an accredited university in Alabama. I am on a full academic scholarship, and it is such "black and white" thinking that has allowed me to be successful throughout my academic career. Yes, there are bad teachers out there, but that does not place the responsibility of the student's success on the teacher. I hate seeing teachers get blamed for mediocre work ethic displayed by many students today.
@dij7878 Yeah man, i'm not a teacher but i'm a 3.50-4.33 GPA student and I hate when my class mates make these mistakes. If only they knew that if they only payed attention in class you can earn an easy B - A-. And if you study for 5-10 MINUTES ONLY at home for 3 weeks before there is a test, you can earn an A+ without a doubt; like me. So da-n simple.
This depiction seems very typical of college students. I remember last semester a child, and he was a child, who came to class with his pillow and blankie. The adolescent proceeded to ask me why I don't like him...I am thankful to be free of people like that for now. Surely it will be a similar situation as I continue on at university. Why anyone would pay $239 per credit hour simply to fail, I certainly don't know! Someone has to change our oil and make hamburgers, I certainly won't.
What software/web did he use to create this movie?
+Paul Yeh Xtranormal. Google.
I'm dying😂😂😂
violet x me fucking too 😂😂
Personally, I would've silently left at about 2:20. There's no point to talk to someone like this for more than two minutes.
Been there...
@mochafudgetruffle I disagree. It is the student's responsibility to do well. Period.
Failure
The character's voices kinda sound like Siri.
7th graders?? I teach college students and this is what I hear- ALL. THE. TIME.
you cant tell someone "you're the worst student i have ever seen". Ever.
True. This is a fantasy.
Your comment was 2 years ago, so you probably won't see my reply... but I'm curious as to why you can't tell a student they are an awful student if it's true?
I'm sure you can't say that in front of the whole class, because it would be humiliating... but why can't you tell them in private exactly how much they suck (if it's true)?
I did get an alert to your reply. Number one, even a truly awful student deserves not to be thoroughly crushed. It's better to suggest that this was a bad time to take the class or even to be in college. Number two, facts work better, even on students who won't hear them. Number three, most students who complain are venting.
Ok fair point... I understand not literally telling them they are awful in those exact words, I was thinking more like a clear and honest wake-up call... but you're right, it can be phrased more tactfully then 'you're awful' or 'the worst student ever!'
I watch X factor, and Simon Cowell seems to delight in telling people they are the worst singer he's ever seen... he's usually right, of course, but sometimes I think he could phrase it a bit more tactfully!
Especially because it's impossible for EVERYONE to be the worst ever!
He really needs to find a new way to reject people, lol.
So tact and discretion, gotcha! :)
I said good day *gang sign*
this is too weird and funny xD
