How can I convince my instructor to allow me to self-study? Last month, I took an extra Chemistry class and since then I had to attend the extra classes after my college ends. But However, I have already self-studied advanced chemistry by myself and For me, The Chemistry Class I am taking is a waste of time because it teaches the same things that I have already leant before. However, The Instructor of that Extra Chemistry class is the same person who is my Lecturer and grader of my College class. That means, if I leave the Extra Chemistry Class then It will affect my college grades. So, Is there any way, to convince my instructor that I want to leave that extra chemistry class and self study by myself without affecting my college grades ?
It may be that you just have to comply with the instructor's wishes and do what is asked. Words are probably not going to convince them.
But, if you really want to convince them that you know the material, ask them to give you an exam, perhaps an oral exam, on the required material. If you do well, then they may be convinced. But if not, then you have the information you need that you really aren't ready.
An oral exam need only take 10 or 15 minutes, actually. Either you struggle or you excel. It can become obvious quickly which &quot;bin&quot; you fall in to.
