It's that backward thinking old school nonsense where people still believe nonsense like you can't look an instructor in the eye or you have to shine his shoes before class or clean his toilet or whatever stupid myth instructors brainwash into their students.So why is asking when you could test disrespectful?
It's not disrespectful in the slightest it's enquiring for your own knowledge of what's happening. I've done it plenty of times
I hear a gradings coming up. End of class I go up to instructor and the conversation goes one of 2 ways
1) me: hey am I good to go for the grading at the next test?
Instructor: yes you are
Me: cool cheers
2) me: hey am I good to go for the grading at the next test?
Instructor: no not this time
Me: cool cheers
Sometimes I wouldn't need to ask because I already knew but when I didn't I asked because......well it's common sense to ask if you don't know something
