Some examples of words whose meaning changes when the stress is shifted are: "record" (a noun meaning a physical document vs. a verb meaning to document), "permit" (a noun meaning an official document vs. a verb meaning to allow), and "present" (a noun meaning a gift vs. an adjective meaning currently happening).
The correct usage is "although it affected my grade". Affect vs. effect is one of the more difficult distinctions in English. Both can be either verbs or nouns, although affect is more common as a verb and effect is more common as a noun. "Affect" as a verb means to influence, act on, or change. This is why "although it affected my grade" is correct. "Effect" as a verb means to bring about, accomplish, or make happen. For example, "The goal of the meeting was to effect a resolution to the dispute." This is why "although it effected my grade" is not correct.
