I was just wondering... So like, my teacher drops the lowest grade every new term and when my teacher dropped my lowest grade which says "no count" next to it, my grade went down.

Is this possible?

No. Check with your teacher.

No, it is not.

Yes, it is possible for your grade to go down when your teacher drops your lowest grade with a "no count" designation. This may seem counterintuitive, but it can happen due to how the grading system works.

When your teacher drops the lowest grade from your overall score, it means that the grade will not be counted towards calculating your final grade. However, the grades that are still included in the calculation now have a greater weightage. This means that if your lowest grade was initially having a lesser impact on your final grade, dropping it could lead to a relatively higher impact from the remaining grades, thereby potentially lowering your overall grade.

To understand why your grade went down exactly, you would need to know the specifics of how your teacher calculates the final grades. Factors like the weightage assigned to each assignment, the total number of grades, and the grading scale can all impact the outcome. It would be best to consult your teacher for a detailed explanation of the grading system and how dropping the lowest grade affects your final grade calculation.
