How unsatisfying is a check mark on a work handed into a professor? Normally I would not care, to be honest, as sometimes my mediocre buzzer beater paper probably would get me an "F" on a normal grading scale. However, there are times where I put my heart and soul into a work, okay maybe not that much, but I do devote an immense amount of time, which now seems superfluous for simply a "check mark" atop of my page. Can you at least make comments on anything. Positive or negative (but please more positive) comments on my style, word choice, and technique, I do not even care.
It is like, if I get no feedback, how am I supposed to know what to improve, or even if I did remotely well? Never have I hated check marks more than I did tonight. Obviously this is a direct reaction to receiving a piece of work, a creative piece written by yours truly, actually two pieces, with nothing except a check mark. It stared at me, mocking me, Congratulations! You are the fourteenth person to hand this in and get credit for doing your homework.
Bullshit.
