Subject Line: Regarding my absence
Dear Professor X,
I sincerely apologize for missing out on the midterm today. It seems that I was careless with my health yesterday and now I am paying the price. I developed a bit of a fever; nothing too serious but caused me to miss out on classes. I have visited the doctor and received a note from him regarding my health. Because of this unfortunate event, I hope that you would allow me to make up the midterm. I apologize for all the inconvenience I might have brought to you.
From, Greg Min

Dear Professor
I was not in attendance during the distribution of the midterm exam. The reason being my health. I have fallen victim to a severe case of stomach virus. I have to be within five feet of a bathroom at all times, otherwise i might have an accident. I have had a doctor visit my home, and she has written a note concerning my current condition. When I am healthy i would like to request a chance to makeup the midterm i have missed at your convenience. Thank you for your time.
Subject- LIBxxxx Journal 8
Dear Professor x
I’m in your LIBxxxx course and I don’t understand journal 8 that is due this Thursday. I feel the assignment is too vague and I’m not sure whether I’m supposed to write a story of an individual or of the statistics that are provided. Can you please clarify what kind of story I have to write?
Thank you,

Hello Professor, I have a question on problem number 18. Since we ran out of time
today in class and did not get the chance to discuss taylor series, how are we suppose
to do this homework exercise? This problem is incredibly difficult to solve and I’ve
tried multiple methods but nothing seems to work. I asked my peers for help, but they
also can’t to find the solution. Can the due date for this homework exercise be
extended to friday? Although we did not get to the lesson today, the class enjoyed
the story of how you managed to escape from two grizzly bears during your summer
vacation. Thank you for your time.

Dear professor ABC,
I apologize wholeheartedly for the absence on the midterm exam date. I guess that’s a fate because I’ve caught the flu the day before exam from my fellow classmate. My fever peaked 102 degree Fahrenheit yesterday. I thought I couldn’t survive anyway, but here I stand and again I say, sorry for the absence last day.
Below is a doctor’s note proving this sickness. Please allow me to retake the test.
Best wishes,
Vincent
