In the final quarter of my senior year (just about one month ago) I got a zero on my final exam because I played games on my cell phone after I completed the test. I finished the thing about 20 minutes early and we weren't allowed to leave early so of course I had to do something to pass the time.
The reason I'm posting this is because the professor agreed to write a letter in my support stating that I got a "D" in the class because I used my cell phone, not because I did poorly and not because I was cheating (the TA saw it was just a game). She said she would send it to any of the schools that I am applying too, but I was wondering if this would just waste the time of adcomms. I am already submitting 6 letters and this extra one would stick out like a sore thumb. This was just a 1.5 unit physics lab and I got an "A" in the lecture portion.
Sorry for the long post, but I would like to hear your opinions about whether or not to submit this extra letter.
Thanks in advance
