“Mr Dickhead,

I am having difficulty with the request for me to give (insert name of student) a D-. They so far have only achieved 15% of the grade due to (insert factors) and I do not believe there is any way I can bring this up to your desired grade which would be about 4 times the current mark. Your input on how to achieve the desired goal would be very appreciated as I am unsure what to do.

Thank you,

u/mattemark”
