final grades are calculated by adding the percentages of all three terms and dividing by 3, but is he allowed to do this?
since i have 80% + 82%, am i in the safe? even if he decides to be a fucking whore and gives me like 5% for third term
any insight would be appreciated, thanks in advance | Depends on each term's weights. Some classes i had were 30/30/40 for first, second, and third term.
Might be possible if he gave you like 1%
I hate asshole teachers  |

They're usually able to help in these situations.

208/3 = 69.3R
69% =/= fail? 
even if you got 0 for third term.
80 + 82 + 0 = 162
162/3 = 54
54% =/= fail
so...  | |

| what do you mean... alter...?
if the terms are scaled/tiered then yes he can butt fuck you.
say term 1 = 30, term 2 = 30 and term 3 = 40 like someone else mentioned.
he has the power to fail you.
go talk to someone immediately about it before shit happens.

i know there was no malice intended and sometimes handicapped people get annoyed when theyre given special treatment, but he is an innocent child, someone needed to step up and do a better job including him, be it the photographer or the teacher. not that they did it on purpose but someone definitely dropped the ball.
