so this term we had a practical assessment with a theory component. the equipment i got completely failed to produce any coherent values, which was verified by the teacher (they also tried to get it to work and it didn't work) who then didn't help and left me to figure it out on my own. i lost a lot of time trying to get some sort of results so i could do the rest of the test but then ran out of time for the rest of the test. so i have very bleak chances of passing basically bc i easily lost a lot of marks on the questions i didnt attempt.
when i asked the teachers to consider some sort of compensation of time or marks or smth they basically told me they couldn't do anything and i had to place a misadventure. and they also said even if i got a misadventure im such a low achieving student that if they estimated based on past marks i wouldn't get a decent mark (btw i rank well above average in my physics cohort and last years science cohort).
should i go raise this issue with someone else? idk whether to make it a bigger deal. ik prelims dont matter or whatever but i feel like i basically got slapped in the face when i raised a genuine concern about an issue i didnt cause. i also can't let it go and fail bc that would piss of my parents.
id rather fail bc i was genuinely stupid and didn't study as opposed to failing like this especially bc i grinded physics this term. i genuinely feel like crying rn
