I feel horrible

Today we got our test results in Math, and I failed... I thought that after I failed in the beginning of the year I will study harder and then get a good result next time. That didn't happen, I studied [b]a lot[/b] for this test and yet still I failed [i]horribly[/i]. Since I failed 2 tests I might get taken out of advanced Math class and that what sux the most. I went through so much trouble to get in that class last year, and now I screwed it up in 2 tests. I hope that they will give me another chance to prove myself after the semester ends, but I don't think it will happen, so I will most likely be screwed going down a level.

Anyways I just had to share this I don't expect anyone to take this more serious then I did(and believe me I took it serious).

Edit: I already quit MS a little more then a month ago, please refrain from the "quit MS" posts, thanks.

@Staralex: Thanks man, I hope I'll get a second chance, But in my school It's not so likely to happen.

@iAreEpicKrn: I pretty much quit Maple a month ago, I also don't go on Basil that much just because of the stupid fail in Math I figured I'll just share it "to the world" and maybe a load will drop off my back.

@andrewkai: Advanced Math isn't the highest Math class there is Extra adv. I'm kind of in the middle class between the lowest and the highest, which is exactly what I need for the direction I want to go study in a University.

[quote=jorden27]Yeah that's the point if I get kicked from adv. Math I won't be able to go study what I wanted in a University...
Edit: either that or I'll have to complete the extra level after school, and I don't really have the time for that.[/quote]

aww man, thats quite a big problem then....
my only advice is to try and get extra help in school and if that's not good enough and you want to do the course at uni enough then a tutor would be needed

[quote=Narutards]Usually if you go to your teacher, counselor, or principal (if the first two don't work) and talk to them, they'll most likely give you another chance.

Yes but I don't think that this was the problem, I know the material, I always solve what the teacher gives us, and usually finish homework in class, also when I studied I didn't have any trouble solving the prep pages the teacher gave us... I think the problem was the test, I didn't really blank-out and I thought I solved everything correctly but then I was proven wrong.

[quote=Staralex]that sucks dude, sorry to hear that
i'm no good at maths either, luckily over here we get to choose our subjects after we've finished 11th grade and go into 12th and 13th.
Do you have to do maths for the rest of your time at school? I mean it really isn't necessary to take it after a certain point, unless theres a university or job you wanna do that needs a good grade in it[/quote]
