Not true! You can submit some late work and get an A in this class, provided that you only request one extension and you submit your work by the new agreed deadline.

As a reminder, here is the contract for an A in this class (from the syllabus):

• You have submitted all required assignments. If you requested an extension for up to one submission, you requested it at least 48 hours in advance, and you submitted by the agreed new deadline.
  
• You have respected the instructions given to the best of your ability, contacting me in case of doubt. If the instructions were still misunderstood, you resubmitted when offered the chance.
  
• You have watched a minimum of 8 lecture recordings out of 10 during the relevant weeks and filled out at least 8 exit tickets in full.
  
• You have a track record of spoken or chat participation in the class meetings. You made at least one input in the discussion for each meeting, be it in the chat or spoken.

In this class, you can earn up to two bonus points (up to twice a + on your letter grade, e.g. from B- to B for one bonus point, or from B- to B+ for two bonus points, and so on). Those two opportunities for extra credits are to lead a class discussion and/or do an optional take-home exam (please see sections in green font on Syllabus for more info).
