Stupid Letter to Professor

Hello Dr.Scott,

My name is Rachel & I wanted to know if I could add your class to my schedule. I took the class last Spring and earned a D grade. As a Senior graduating this semester, I’ve been trying to enroll in your class and search for open spots. My goal is to boost my gpa for gradschool by re-taking your class and earning a higher grade (I’m working for an A grade). There is one open spot, but I will have to get a manual change with a physical paper with your signature instead of adding electronically. The electronic add date expired today and one person finally dropped after this deadline.

I wanted to know if you would approve me adding your class. I’ve attended every class since the first day and have participated. My answers today on your question, “What are examples of Teratogens?” were drugs, stress, & age. I sit towards the front on your right hand side you might recall. Today I wore a grey sweater.

Thank you so much for your valuable time, I truly appreciate it.

Sincerely,
Rachel

Hi Rachel,

Yes, I remember you. I didn’t realize you weren’t actually registered. I’m more than happy to sign the form for that last spot. Today I will be in my lab (SSM 137) from 9-11:30 if you want to stop by. After that I will unfortunately be in meetings until 3pm. After my meetings, I’ll be back in my lab until 6pm. Hopefully you can find me in that time. If not, I’ll be in my office tomorrow from 3 to 5.
Best,
Rose
