Hi,

I can most certainly help you or make you feel better. Before I continue, are you a university student and if so, what subject?

The thing is, there is no such thing as a "stupid" person. Anyone can more or less ace a test if they put their all into it. It is important that I know what type of student you are, i.e. university or sixth form student - as I can advise better.

I graduated with a First Class Honours in a STEM subject 6 months ago - and I was once just like you - very bad at tests and had a lack of motivation. My own high school nearly kicked me out because of my bad GCSE mock exams and told me to apply elsewhere - so I completely get where you are coming from. The tables were once turned against me.

I can relate, failure is normal and means you are trying?

Your revision may be last minute (week-day before)
Not getting enough sleep/good food?
Make sure you understand the content

Also do not compare yourself to others
