- По действующим правилам нельзя пересдавать больше двух раз - на третий ставится вопрос об отчислении. А деканат, как известно, боится отсева. Вот и присылает "в порядке исключения" раз за разом. Капля долбит камень. Учтёшь всё это, подумаешь-подумаешь и поставишь тройку... (И. Грекова, Кафедра) — According to the existing rules a student cannot take the same exam more than twice - after that the question of expelling the student arises.

You think about it and taking this into consideration give him a 'three'.
