<p>After I take a test I'm always so stressed out over what grade I'm gonna get. Like I honestly, I just took a quiz in math and I redid every problem that I think that I got wrong to see if I got the right answer. >_< Anyone else have similar problems? How do you deal with them?</p>
<p>I do the same thing. But I tend to make stupid mistakes, so going back over it is always a good thing.</p>
<p>i try to find out my grade at the end of the day. if i can't do that i go on a run or lift weights or just chill...</p>
<p>I tended to obsess over problems I wasn't sure how to do, but that just made me more upset, especially if I already thought I didn't do well. </p>
<p>I just preferred not to discuss questions with other test takers and to put it out of my mind as soon as it was over. After a couple of hours, even if I thought I bombed the test, I still felt more relaxed.</p>
<p>Honestly, it's not worth your time to constantly rework test problems.</p>
<p>I just try not to think about the test except for actually taking it. This is good in that I never stress. It is bad in that I never study except for VERY major things like AP exams and finals. I seem to do okay.</p>
<p>I used to be like that. Eventually, I just tried to completely forget about the test until it was necessary. As soon as I turn it in, I know that there is no turning back, so it is useless to worry. I try to avoid the type of people that want to discuss answers as soon as the test ends. "OMG #5 was SO hard, what did you get?!!" It causes you to second-guess yourself and worry even more. Just forget about it until the grade comes back. I can usually check my grades online by that evening, so there really is no point in worrying for a whole day.</p>
<p>I do the same thing...and i usually realize a stupid mistake that i made, and then i obsess over it. I feel a bit pathetic now, lol.</p>
<p>I have the same thing. I always finish a test, then when I talk about it with my friends, it always seems like I did horrible.</p>
<p>I would suggest any sort of physical activity.</p>
<p>I run two miles every day after school and It helps me calm down, a lot.</p>
<p>and listen to jazz, it really calms you down.</p>
<p>I had this same problem in US History. I would quell my nervousness by looking up the test questions I wasn't sure about. After that I wouldn't have anything to really worry about, as I would pretty much already know my score.</p>
<p>Yeah, I hate when this happens. Then, I discuss the answers with my friends and then I forgot what I put for that answer and it drives me crazy lol.</p>
<p>Just keep telling yourself that it's too late to change your grade, so no need to stress over it.</p>
<p>i just forget about it. i think about it when i get my test back and try to see what i did wrong. u seriously dont need to stress about it after the test because its too late. take ur mind off it because theres more tests after that</p>
<p>Stressing over a test after you've taken it will not change how well you did. If you prepared adequately before the test, you have nothing to worry about.</p>
<p>^Actually, I've had pretty good luck with getting out of a bad test grade. By bad test grades, I'm talking about lower than a 92, since my school's grading scale is a little harsher than average. Once I accidentally had my calculator in radians instead of degrees, but I didn't know it at the time. I talked to the teacher afterward, and he let me redo those problems since my work was right but the answers were wrong. Another time I did a physics problem correctly, but the teacher's answer key was wrong. I've also been able to just go up and ask the teacher to clarify any confusing questions. No one really seems to do this past middle school, but I think it's always okay to ask a teacher to clarify something.</p>
<p>Anyway, for some people it's not always easy to forget about a test. My circle of friends always has these discussions after tests, where we all compare our answers to the hard questions. Just forgetting about it is not a good way to learn from your mistakes.</p>
<p>However, it shouldn't keep you up at night because you think you forgot to answer question 32. I think there's a distinction between reflecting on the test and freaking out over minute mistakes.</p>
<p>I tell myself that it won't make a difference whether you check or not. The result will be the same however your fret about it and might as well chill. Don't think about the test at all and sleep. But this only really happened to me once, after my first and only SAT test.</p>
