If you ask a prof to bump up your grade because you "tried really hard" you will have the door shut in your face! lol. There is no sympathy in University.
I HATE that most of my classes have no grades except for like... 3 tests. You fail one and you basically might as well drop the class. Even though classes may be more challenging, they still expect a bell curve so they'll make things harder to adapt for that.
