One year ago I took a course called "Extended Organic Chemistry" (EOG), worth 20 points. (you American folks probably need to divide that number to two, to convert it to your system). I got a C. I wasn't happy with that C, because 20 points weighs very heavily down my average which is just under B. If I retook the course and got a B, I'm pretty sure I'd have B as average. I had to wait a year to retake the course.
I screwed up on a spectroscopy exercise.
In the mean time, I took a course called "Applied Organic Spectroscopy". Really interesting, and basically just solving brain teasers. I got a B.
I read some during the semester, but prioritized the other courses. I remembered surprisingly much. The exam came, and I felt I nailed the spectroscopy exercises.
However, I did not. The rest of the exam was sufficient for a strong C, + I had two As from some small tests during the semester that weighed 15 % and full score from the lab course. I made 35 % on the last exercise, which was spectroscopy. All in all, I was 2 % points away from the B I wanted.
I'm planning on sending a formal complaint. Not because I thought my professor's reasoning was bad, but because there is a slight chance I might be favored. Unethical? Maybe, but I don't care
