Failed a class in high school - self esteem down?
okay, 2009-2010 was my freshman year in high school .The high school i attend is on block schedule (first year btw) . I took science first semester and failed with a 67 . I worked my butt off and i wasn't failing initially . My heart broke & its been something i have had to carry with me everyday . I didn't tell my parents because they are very strict and i didn't want to disappoint them as i felt i disappointed myself. This was my first time failing a class and now i feel like a failure . I was the person who made all A'S & B's out of my friends . My freshman year was a very difficult adjustment for me . I know there is no way i can take it back now , but i just wish i could get my self esteem back . Any advice ?

Don't beat yourself up. While you may be great at your English and Math classes, obviously science was a harder subject for you. Block schedule can make it even more difficult being that you don't go to the class every day. Next time you take the class, if you find yourself struggling, ask for help. Find a tutor. It's OK to fail in life. Every one does at one point or another, usually more than once. As long as you can learn something from the experience, it's never a total loss. Take something away from everything you do, the good and the bad. Look at it as a chance to better yourself. A lot of people don't realize failure is a part of real life until AFTER high school. You've already got a very important experience under your belt. Keep your chin up and move forward
Don't be such down life is consist of many exams and to face problems itself is an exam, However life itself is an exam you may try to work harder next time and do not hide it from your parents tell them about that if you share your problems with your parents then they would be like your friends so try to tell them share this with your friends ask ideas what to do read books & listen music this can make you feel better try to be friendly with everyone this might get your self esteem back try to face challenges in life!!
Thanks.
