Why fake it? Why not mean it? I would do every extra credit possible. If the reason the grade is low because work is turned in late, I agree to ask if they'll accept late work. ( at my school the district won't allow late work ) If not, ask for help. Though, that's the first thing I would have done. Last, try your absolute best.
Ok so, it all comes down to basically how nice the teachers are? Go to them and ask them personally if they'd take any late work or makeup work. Also ask (but in a very kiss butt way) if there was any chance theyd be willing to give you extra credit. The key to doing this is like basically just begging them and being super apologetic. Be fake and see if it gets you anywhere?
