The professors who expect my input because I test well. These guys ignore everyone for the first 3 weeks and then pick favorites based on assessment scores. And goddamn If your name is in good standing, expect to be heckled and prodded amd nudged for input for the rest of the term. To be fair, it's nice to know someone's looking out for you, but if they make the jump from, "Ah, he's not a bad student!" to, "You're not applying yourself like I think you should be." That's when it gets fucky.
