God I love college.

Also 80/80 so that makes me feel a bit better

Should already know by now that you do the whole project yourself, regardless of how many group members you have.

You were supposed to coordinate and do it together, discuss stuff. This whole "I'll do this part and you do this part" thing is probably not what professors have in mind when they assign group work. Even when all parties do their part, it leads to some choppiness/discontinuity feel in the final work.

Not 80/80. 80/80 includes perfect grammar.

^ya. you supposed to Teamup.
you do this by staying in contact, knowing who does what, where, when, and how.

everyone involved can throw each other under a bus. however, the project fails because of lack of communication.

if you don't like getting bad grades, step up and be the group leader to coordinate tasks to meet your goals. hold group members accountable. if they say they can do, trust them and follow up after each group session.

you dont get to be a lead all the time so you also need to learn2follow. if someone else was assigned group lead, follow that person and bring up stuff youd want like keeping milestones to ensure the tasks get done. you don't have to take over the lead role but you can ensure the group doesnt fail.

This is more or less your fault tbh. Whenever I had partners who refused to do the work I would contact the professor and work something out that I could complete solo. It's on you to be proactive.
