Low-key scared I’m gonna get caught on my finals tomorrow

So basically I’ve been doing this thing to pass my exams where I record the screen, then have my sister or grandma call me acting like there’s an emergency or I act like my MacBook is dying so I can "save and quit." While I’m out of the exam, I write all the answers on sticky notes, paste them on my screen, and then go back in and finish.

I’ve been doing this for a minute, but yesterday during an exam it literally said "phone detected." I had the phone hidden during the room scan, but they didn’t see nothing. I have my anatomy and nutrition finals tomorrow and I’m low-key panicking. Do you guys think the teacher is gonna find it sus if I "save and quit" again? Like, is it too obvious at this point? I’m scared to use my phone again since I already got flagged once. Should I still try the sticky note move or am I cooked?

Should I still ask my professor if I can improve a semester-long project grade this late?

So I’m currently worried about my grade in my college environmental science class. I’m a high school senior doing dual enrollment, and I’ve worked really hard to keep up a good GPA overall, so I’m stressing about this class right now.

One of our major assignments this semester was an iNaturalist project where we had to upload photos/observations throughout the semester. I honestly procrastinated and only uploaded a few observations, so I ended up getting a 6 on the project. Right now my overall grade in the class is a 74.87%, and I’m trying really hard to bring it up before the semester ends next Monday.

I’m debating if I should still email my professor asking if I could submit more observations/photos for partial credit or improve the grade a little. He seems pretty chill based on his syllabus and during our class meetings, and this is an online class.

I already emailed him earlier today about another late assignment asking if I could still submit it for partial credit, and I submitted it anyway even though he hasn’t replied yet.

And yes, I understand deadlines are deadlines, and this situation is my fault. I’m not trying to act entitled or avoid accountability. It’s honestly only been one late assignment and this project all semester, and I’ve been balancing dual enrollment while still in high school and already finishing my associate’s degree this is my last semester.

I’m mainly just asking if it’s still worth respectfully shooting my shot and emailing him about the iNaturalist project too, or if that would probably just annoy the professor at this point

Do you guys think it's worth emailing him about the Naturalist project too, or would that just annoy the professor at this point? I genuinely do want to improve my grade and show effort before the semester ends.
