Analysis
The student plt was on her fourth supervised solo flt. During the ground roll of her fourth landing the acft started to go left of the rwy centerline. The plt said she over corrected twice and ended up heading off the rwy toward a ditch. Inan attempt to overly the ditch the acft was pulled off the ground in a steep nose up attitude with flaps still extended. The acft stalled and after dragging a wing tip it cartwheeled and slid to a stop.
