Sounds as though the grading at the PhD level is entirely subjective :~^

Yup. It's the ultimate apprenticeship -- the craft decides whom will be
admitted, and it is entirely subjective. There are many stories of people
writing dissertations that were approved by all but one member of the diss
committee. Stories abound about internal politics and reputations staked
on the refusal to sign a dissertation. There have been suicides and
murders. Whacked out ****.

Is there no second chance?
