If you haven't already, talk to a Principal or who the heck ever is in charge of your school. Explain the situation to them and they might be able to help out. Edit: Also, sorry for your loss, OP. May your family member rest in peace.

I was really confused for a second, I thought the last sentence was in regard to rescheduling the test, which didn't seem unreasonable to me at all. makes sense now though, bitch is cold as ice.

OP, it's actually against school policies not to excuse students for family funerals so tell someone higher up and the teacher will be required to give you the test later or she'll get fired.

Maybe she was talking about the test?

My boss said the same thing to a coworker once. People can be really inconsiderate.

School policy allows for beirebemnt time. Contact your dean

what a stupid teacher you have

u should have told him or her to reschedule their attitude

Hi, I'm the OP for this FML... First off, it was my dad's younger sister who passed and while we aren't too close now she used to babysit me daily when I was younger and I held her as a role model for most of my childhood. We grew apart after she moved across the country but I don't think it really matters --family is family. I went to the head of the department and I am allowed to take the exam at a later date despite my teacher's ignorance. She's known for being a heartless bitch and honestly I detested the woman even before this stunt she pulled.

Take the fail and go to the funeral. Also, go to the administration, because that's one of those circumstances where you should be allowed a make up test.
