When you fail a test, there are many ways to go about that situation. First, you can take the approach where you look at the grade and cry. I suggest to not do that only because you will look like a baby and plus, you're in high school; sorry to be so tough but grow up. When you get the test back you can fold the top part of the paper where the grade is and be ashamed of it. Or, you should take my own personal advice and me proactive. Folding the paper where the grade is fine. I completely understand if you don't want anyone to be aware that you failed the test. In class, when your teacher goes over the test, ask questions. Definitely don't be afraid! The teachers for the most part are looking to help you and it looks excellent if you at least appear to look as though you care.
If you fail a test, go to extra help or find the teacher when you can sit one on one with them to discuss your mistakes. Even if you went over the test with a tutor, friend, or self, show the teacher that you care and are willing to take time out of your day to understand rather than ask for a higher grade. Also, maybe even meeting with the teacher or showing that you care, he or she might even boost your grade or allow you to do test corrections. By the way, even if your teacher doesn't offer extra points, ask if you can do test corrections and show them your corrections because when the semester comes to an end, the teacher will take into consideration the effort that you showed.
I hope this was helpful with dealing with a failed test.
