What kind of advice do you give to a friend who failed a test?

Well on of my close friends failed a test that promotes you to the next grade levle.I have told her time and time again you can take the test durning the summer but she is blowing it way out of hand.I want to make her smile again.What do I do?What kind of advice do you give to a friend who failed a test?
Offer to study with her.What kind of advice do you give to a friend who failed a test?
She is probably feeling really down, so it is important (and shows you are a good friend) to help her feel better and get back on track.





First you may want to get her mind off of it for a day or so. A movie, mall run or something else fun may do the trick.





Assure her that she WILL pass the next one and you can help her to do it. I have failed many tests before ( I am working on my master's now, so I have plenty of experience in bombing tests!!) The one advantage of failing a test is that she can prepare herself to ace the next one by recognizing her weakness areas and work on those first. Study with her and help her get her confidence up.


Best of luck to the both of you!!
tell her not to stress and instead of focusing on how mad she is, focus on how she's going to pass the test next time instead. also let her know that there's really no use getting so worked up because there's nothing she can do but work hard for the next test.
Take her out . Tea, sushi, shopping...whatever. Break up her dark mood; and remind her about retaking it in the summer once she lightens up a little. Tests create much anxiety in many people. Show her a good time.
TELL HER :





KEEP YA HEAD UP!!!!!!!!


DONT BE NERVOUS!!!!!!!!!!





%26amp; OFFER TO HELP HER STUDY / REVIEW.... MAYBE GO SHOPPING FOR 1 OF THOSE STANDARDIZED TEST REVIEW BOOKS FOR YOUR GRADE LEVEL
You should tell her this quote.....';Motivation is what gets you started, habit is what keeps you going.';
she can try takling to the teacher, teachers dont want their students to fail, not only because they care but it also reflects poorly on them. she will likely let her retake the test or find another way to make up the marks.





if all else fails, marks dont define and often people are mismarked its not the end of the world.





remember Albert Einstein failed most of elementary school.
Give a little time to feel the disappointment. This is a natural response and a good response- it makes us try harder the next time. Be supportive and let her have her feelings.
Remind her that it's just a number on a piece of paper. It doesn't dictate her self-worth. Help her study any way you can, and let her know that no matter what, your friendship will not change.
tell her to never give up, and make sure you're there 4 her eventhough she'll be a grade below you now. Good Luck!!
Tell her to study. Help her study. If she doesn't, that's her life she's blowing away.
try and try until you succeed and don't give up


because they're always a next time.


everybody experienced that.


YOU CAN DO IT GIRL!!!
I don't know if this will make her simle but, explain to her that there is always someone else in a worse situation for example, there are people in other countries who burn excrement (human feces) for heat but die from breathing it in and there are also children slaves from as young as 7, hopefully this will make her think about how small her problem is and show her that she should be appreciative for what she has. There are MUCH worse things than besides failing a test that you can retake anyway.
study more, suck it up, drink some water, things like this happen.





Give him/her a hug go to a movie and forget it, then try harder next time
You should studdy with her. She probably wants your help, but feels like you dont want to help her. Just offer her some help and get her to study more. Show her what she has done wrong.
you and your friend should get together and form a study group
theres not much you can do. I have a friend who had failed a test that will hold her back and I told her that she tried her hardest and no matter what I will always be there. And then we went out for just a girls day out and we did the things we enjoyed doing the most. Its a tough thing to think about being held back a grade and watch all your friends move on, So you need to tell your friend not to worry even though you will move on you will be there for him or her it will make them happy to know that they wont be alone.Hope I helped. =)
tell her we have a god who is always with us os on matter how low we get, tell her to do the test asking gods help and she wount be disapointed
take the test with her and fail, hahahahha sounds funny to me
Nothing beat a failure but another try. No matter what we fail at we have to keep trying until we get it right.
JUST STOP TELLING HER ABOUT IT


IF YOU STOP SHE MIGHT GET HAPPY


SHE MIGHT HAVE GOTTEN ANNOYED OF YOU TELLING


HER THAT STUFF OR SOMETHING


SORRY IF THAT WAS MEAN
Tell her exactly that- ';She is blowing it way out of proportion';. Be supportive and true to your friend. But let her know all is not lost and that she still has the opportunity to do better and pass. She needs to apply herself a little more to get the results she wants and if she is willing to do that then she will succeed. If you are knowledgeable in the area she was tested on, offer your help and quiz her until she gets the answers right. It may not be the only thing that has got her down at the moment and maybe you need to ask her if there is something else bothering her so she can get that off her chest and concentrate on her studies. Good Luck and Best Wishes
