Actually, read and replied to the OP's post (see post #10). Read and replied to yours about how you figure the OP will get the "Stare of Death" from adcom when interviewing due to a F on a 2 credit P/F astronomy course (see post #28. Shouldn't require a roadmap.
*sigh*
The "Stare of Death" would not be from the "F", as you have incorrectly interpreted it to mean (and I gave no indication it would be). The Stare would only arise from the horribly-planned answer on WHY the F is there if given.
So... if he gave HIS answer he wants to give, which is, "It ain't my fault, sir! It's the stupid classes! I had to focus on THEM!", that would constitute the "Stare of Death." If he gave a decent answer, then there would likely be no mortal stare involved.
In addition, your advice to "not say anything" isn't answering the question of, "
How should I explain the situation?". Unless you're honestly telling the OP to plead the fifth, that isn't viable advice. All I really see you did in that post is say, "Well, you WILL need an excuse...". Way to go, superstar. I think he already knew that, which is why he was asking what he should say.
Once again, it's adorable that I have to explain all of my arguments to the big, bad medical school student who SHOULD be able to correctly analyze a simple forum post for the main idea and correctly refute it (if refutation is needed). I think, however, at this point, the only REAL refutation I can expect from you is you making some attempt to embarrass me and make me look like a "troll", as if
argumentum ad hominem attacks aren't considered fallacious arguments by the vast majority of the academic world.
Good try, though.
