Given the pass I think we may be looking for a well educated sportswoman.

Someone else ask a question.

Hint: you might benefit from re-asking the STEM question for an explanation of why I passed. It's not for the reason you all seem to think.

Actually, it looks like I would need to give my "best guess" at the answer, so it would still be a "yes" or "no". So maybe re-asking wouldn't actually help. However, now that I've said that, I would encourage you to speculate on why I passed on the question.

I’ll throw out my current thoughts on this and see what you guys think. My current speculation is perhaps a grammatical misstep, and the use of “best known”. I suspect that this person may be well known for stem, and depending on the audience, may be recognized as a STEM achiever or for other achievements. What do you guys think?

I figured that this was what you thought, based on your earlier questions. My hint is that it's not that.
