failed a test

I failed a test with a lot of critical thinking skills.I kept having trouble choosing between two answers that seemed equally as right in my mind.I am scared that this is going to drag down my average in the class.I am trying to figure out what I have to score on each future test in order to bring my average up to passing.The test before this one,I did well on.
Has anyone failed a test in a class,and then did well on the rest of the tests and passed the class.I am just really worried.I feel awful.We have on average two tests a day.I have to more tomorrow too

Re: failed a test

Two tests a day?! How many tests do you have to take per semester?

Re: failed a test

Yes I failed a test and still passed the class. We only had 4 unit exams, 2 pharm exams and a final exam. It can be done. Good luck.

Re: failed a test

Remember, go slow, read ALL the info and tackle the easy questions first. Once you have those out of the way, you can go back and take more time on the ones that are stumping you. Sometimes another question will give you the answer.
I too have some trouble with the critical thinking stuff.....everything's normal in the PACU except for a pulse O2 of 90%....didn't catch that, wrong answer result. It happens, just breathe and go on. No point in worrying about what u can't change.
