I throw my test up in the air sometimes saying, ayo I got a zero!

I'm sure there are plenty of people who have failed in an important exam/test/assessment. So, have you ever failed a major exam/test, etc? If yes, then how do you respond knowing that you failed? Do you feel discouraged and give up quickly or do you fully devote yourself to study more and work hard to do better next time?

Well, I remember I once failed my maths test which wasn't really that important, though. I analyzed and gone through the silly and careless mistakes that I often make in the test and what I could have done better. Seriously, math has always been a great weakness for me, but I really am trying my level best to overcome it.

I feel discouraged whenever I get a failing grade on a test. Recently, I didn't do well in my physics exam. My dad was the one who said that I should study more for it, but I feel that I may not do well the next time around.

We had this massive Indonesian topic test and I didn't know crap on the exam. It was obvious I got a 9%. XD But other than that, I haven't failed any major tests. I do pretty well in exams and tests. Well, at least enough not to fail.

I can happily and proudly say I have never failed an exam, not a single one.
I always push myself when it comes to exams and work, because I know that I need the qualifications to back up what I claim to know.

I am proud I have never gotten lower than a Grade C (For anyone not knowing that grading system A>B>C>D>E>F>U A highest to U fail)

 

[AshPikastar]

When I fail a exam then I would usually be like "Crap! Can I retake it please." Some of my teachers allow me to retake my tests but if not I just try better next time.

I have never failed an exam, only quizzes and stuff. The only advice that I can give to all of you is that we all learn from mistakes, so next time we'll try harder so that we'll do it in the right way. :)

 

[Aquacorde]

I've never failed a test. Which amazes me, because I always slack off and never study.

 

[Regeneration]

I have never failed a test either. :X /crosses fingers

But still, failures are the stepping stones to success; so one should learn from their mistakes so as to ensure that nothing like that happens again~

 

[Kura]

Never. I guess I'm just a keener.

 

[Izanagi]

Depends if I can afford to fail the test.

 

[Skip Class]

I don't let failing bring me down. There's always a next time... even at the end of year exam. You know what you did wrong you know what you have to try next time to do better

 

[Corvus of the Black Night]

Never with exams, but I always manage to get a really really **** grade on one test or big project a year. It's annoying, but I know I test better than others and use that to my advantage, pairing it with my study skills. Sometimes I also learn slower than the curriculum permits and I'll do better than most people on cumulative tests - probably why I do better on exams anyhow.

Maybe for you, but if you fail your third year or a single module out of fine in University, you don't get a retake and you fail.

 

[Shanghai Alice]

One bad grade. Que sera sera, I can do better.

 

[Alice]

Once, and only once. The calc 1 final was awful. Otherwise, I always get 100% without any effort, or study. lol

Yes, actually. I failed my Exit Exam Math final yesterday. It's done on computers, so I got a grade immediately. After seeing the material I was tested on I wasn't surprised that I'd fail, it was the extent I failed at. I received a 34%; I was surprised I got any bit of it correct. All my teacher does is sit on his butt and eat Cheetos during class, so he isn't exactly helping my education. I do pretty well on the lessons. Most quizzes are B's and A's. I was doing pretty good until the final. There were two major topics, one of them I understood to a point. I do know everything I was being taught, mind you. The test covered problems I haven't even gotten to yet, so naturally I'd fail.

I didn't really care to be honest. It's a stupid class. But on classes I actually care about, I do get a little discouraged, but I study more after to do better on future tests.

 

[Prometheus]

I know I've failed one I did today for sure.

 

[Sammi]

I failed a spelling test pretty hard in 6th grade. Studying isn't something I do, and my spelling is atrocious without spellcheck or study.

Ended up having to stay inside for recess for a week to learn better study habits. They helped.

I wasn't really discouraged about it or anything. Just upset about missing recess. </3

 

[King Gumball]

The only exams I have failed are Italian exams, but that was okay because no one tried, my class just bullied the poor teacher. When I get like 70% ish then I feel pretty discouraged as I am usually a 80% onwards student.

 

[Meganium]

I rarely fail an exam, but don't get me started on math exams. I have to pull an allnighter just to study for a 20-question-showoffyourwerk math exam that's worth 200 points. For English and Science and other subjects, I hardly fail any.
