<p>If the sentence is <code>她是笨蛋学生</code> or <code>她是笨学生</code>, it would mean <code>She is a fool student</code>, but since there is a <code>的</code> in between, <code>笨蛋</code> is a noun that refers to a person, and not an adjective anymore. So <code>She is the student of a fool</code> makes better sense.</p>

Feels more likely that the writer made a mistake.

<p>It is very likely this was intended to have an adjectival meaning: "she is one dummy of a student." It is a VERY casual way of talking, much more likely to be sent as a text message or post than spoken, but I have seen LOTS of this kind of thing online. Think of it as a Chinese correlate to the pidgin English so many people use when they are posting carelessly.  Don't use it in your assignments, your teacher might have a conniption fit.</p>

<p>I am native Chinese. I have to say that in practice such saying is very unlikely to be used. This is swearing at someone. </p>

<p>For a Chinese language learner, it is not the path to go to dig into such things. </p>

<p>Chinese language is not like western languages in that it is very simple in grammar. There is no time tense for verbs. There is no part of speech changes for pronouns etc. </p>

As 笨蛋的 is not a valid adjective, "She is the student of a fool" would be the only grammatical way to interpret the sentence.

If the sentence is `她是笨蛋学生` or `她是笨学生`, it would mean `She is a fool student`, but since there is a `的` in between, `笨蛋` is a noun that refers to a person, and not an adjective anymore. So `She is the student of a fool` makes better sense.
