Oh My Gosh, Im so stressing about my Math end of the year test. All of the other subjects, Im ok with, but Im soooooo stressing about the math part. This is the first time I have EVER been this nervous about an End of the year test. I feel like I might have failed the Math! I want to get the scores back, so I can see if I have or havent, but we get them either next week or the week after. The thing is, If I did fail it, the retakes are on the First Monday and Tuesday that school is out. Also, the Sunday before those two days, my family is leaving to Florida for Vacation. We havent been on vacation in almost 3 years because of hard times. There has been LOTS LOTS LOTS LOTS of things that have happened within those 3 years, and Its time for a really nice vacation. I dont know what to do if I fail the test, because it will screw up our plans for vacation. Im just sooo stressing!!! Have you ever been in this situation.
PS: The reason why I feel like I have done bad on this is because I have been out of school atleast once every month due to Doctors App., plus other unexpected things that pop up. Every time I was out, the teacher would always start on something new. So I would get behind and then struggle with some things....

This is probably going to sound like the hardest thing to do right now.. but just chill out.
What are your past test scores like? Do you usually blank out on them and fail like i do, or are you usually pretty good?

I've been in that stituation, but it didn't involve vacation. Just involved me panicking about failing a math exam. Which in the end i scored two points above failing, but it's still passing..
Just calm down and wait for the results, there's not anything you can do to change it now.

Congrats! Honestly, there's no point in stressing yourself out over exams they're going to happen and worrying isnt going to help you. If you know you've done the best you could then thats all you can do. Just a little bit of future advice :D

Well Done!!!! :)

^^As the above have said, there is no point in going crazy over a class test.

If you do feel pressured out, then speak to your teacher in the subject concerned, they might be able to give you some extra help or some revision pointers.

I know I felt stressed out about my maths exam ( In fact I had my Final one a last Wednesday) and my teacher was able to help me out with the bits I wasn't too sure about. Remember, that's what teachers are paid for, to make you confident in passing your exams.

Stay cool and always do some revision.

The PT Maths in my school said that if you have a blank, don't leave the exam but get some paper and doodle because your sub-conscious mind is still thinking of the problem and you might get that "Eureka!" moment when you realise you can do the question
