No, no, no. That's not right at all. If the professor said on the syllabus that the midterm and final were worth a set percentage of the grade, then he should have stuck to that. No fudging for people he thought needed it, even if they did. See, this is what makes me mad...it looks like he "helped" the students who got lower grades but did nothing for the ones who got decent ones (i.e. B's). He probably thinks anyone ought to be happy with a B, but if he helps some students out, he ought to help them all! Screw "progress"...does your school have an ombud you can talk to?

PS: If I sound a little, er, heated, it's because a professor lost my final exam once and gave me a zero for it, which dropped my final grade to a B. When I went to see him about it, his attitude was, "Well, you got a B, didn't you? What's wrong with that?"
