Failure is a big part of life. Every successful person can tell you that they failed multiple times in their life before reaching the place they are today. Anyone who has never failed in life has never tried.

Failure is not only inevitable, but it is important. We learn from experience in hopes that we won't repeat our mistakes in our future. What have you learned from this experience? Is there one area you could have focused on more while studying? Did you give yourself enough time to prepare for this test? Objectively examine what you did wrong so you can improve the next time you take the exam.

No one's going to blame you for lying in bed doing nothing. Give yourself an entire day to do just that, then get up and get your life together. Start studying again now and change your routine so you're getting 8 hours asleep every night, which will help you focus on the exam.

You need to know why you failed. Go through the process so you can learn from it. If you can, ask for your script back and ask a teacher to look for it. Sometimes you can do it, but you will have to pay.

Don't do this straight away though. You've sat the exam, and there's nothing else you can do now. However hard you worry, or think, it will not change.

So keep yourself busy, doing something you like! Watch a movie with ice-cream and popcorn, read a book, watch tv, go for a walk, see your friends, etc , etc. Just keep yourself busy so that you keep your mind off it. Relax.

When you can, ask your teacher about the script.

Good luck :)
