Answer 1

Do the project the BEST that you can. Work on it like you've never worked on anything before. And also, talk to your teacher and see if s/he will let you make up any missing work for the fourth quarter. It's unlikely that you'll pass but it's definately worth a shot. Believe it or not, teachers aren't out to get you, they want to see you do well.

Answer 2

It depends on how well you do, but you would really have to do well.  It looks like the best you could possibly do would be to get a D.

Answer 3

Go ahead and do it!  In college, I needed something like a 478 on my final exam to pass a class (I didn't go very often, oops).  Not possible to get a 478 out of 100 (obviously), but I went and took it anyway and the prof passed me!

Answer 4

I doubt it

Answer 5

Hard to say because there are too many variables in grading, but likely no, you won't pass.

First, a project worth 10% isn't likely to pull your grade out of the gutter.

Second, frankly, even if it *is* enough to pull your grade out, a student with 1 D and 3 Fs isn't likely to ace the project and get all 120 points.  You don't have the best track record there, kiddo.

Answer 6

It depends on how low your F's are.

Also, if you happen to have a teacher who would be willing to work with you, s/he will NOT cut you any slack if you don't do this final project.
