Failing and repeating a year
Action/reaction. If you fail or are in danger of having to repeat a year, you may be upset, tempted to react, or unmotivated for awhile.
But the failure doesn't define you. If you’re having problems at school, it doesn’t mean that you’re not a good person or that you are worthless.
Everything is relative. The fact that you failed doesn’t mean that you'll always fail. For one thing, getting 50% on a test means you know half the material! If you look at it this way, it's easier to get motivated again.
Try to understand what happened. Was there too much pressure on you? Did you not study enough? Did you go to class? Did you pay attention in class? Have bullying (read more here about bullying) or personal problems interfered with your studies?
