It isn't the tests, isn't the school. It's the parents, so often it's the parents. "Yes I'm a failure. I've accepted that - happy yet?"

School...is a joke. Especially tests. Don't let them number break you down, I've learned it really doesn't matter. You're more intelligent than the number you got; and if anyone makes you feel bad about the tests or anything like that, just tell them to stick it where the sun doesn't shine. :). You're amazing.

If this was some state mandated achievement test, dont give it a second thought. They are bs tests that 'supposedly' measure your intelligence. Honestly though, they measure your conformity. I can assure you you are not in any way a failure. I would stake my life on it.

And I know this because how else could you write such beautiful poetry? :) you have a gift my dear. It may not show up on tests, but it is there.

School sucks. Hope it gets better. Keep writing!

Tests were just made as another tool to make us comform to their standards. In the end they're nothing but a number.
