Look, you will get a negative reaction for sure. But it will make it better if you'll promise that you'll try your hardest next time, and she should trust you.

Good luck.

You are most likely going to get the reaction. The way I see it is simple. You're mom is just being hard, which is good in a way. I would see that as motivation to get better at my studies. It would definately encourage me to get better and be a better student-full of discipline. Sometimes we must learn from our mistakes the hard way. A negative reaction from your mother-or just anybody-shoul be taken as fuel. With it, you will get better and better. For instance, I had an experience in my horn playing. The instructor told me that I had a weak trumpet articulation. This guy said it straight out. Came out harsh, but there I went and practice and practice on it. I got good at it. I even showed him. When I did, he was impressed. In other words, you will prove them wrong. They give a negative reaction, use it as motivation. After you have mastered it, go back to that person and show them that you got good at it. That's just how I see your concern. I would take negative reaction as motivation to get it right next time and prove them wrong. I hope this helps. This is just an idea to see your concern, and not see the bad side to it. What I'm trying to say is don't let your mother put you down, because she's not trying to. Those are not her intentions, as much as she tells you how bad you were at the exams. You want to prove your mother that you can do it. Again, I hope this helps somehow. Wish you the best! Believe in yourself. Take care.

Your mother will have a negative reaction no matter how you explain. However, whenever i tell my mom about getting a few bad grades, she always says that at least you REALLY tried, by studying each night. If you really did try and studied before the test, then explain that to your mom. Ask her for help in studying... good luck!

If you did something tell them before they find out
Make promises and keep them. If you are doing bad promise you'll do better and actually do.
Become trustworthy, do what they tell you (gross, right?) and don't like (oooh, that sucks)

Tips
Be super nice
Follow all directions

* How to Ace Your Next Test*

There's nothing like getting a test back and seeing an "A" on the top of the page. Here's how you can make it happen.

Steps
Study ahead of time. Don't put it off until the last minute. If you hold off until the night before or, even worse, that morning, you're less likely to retain all of the material because of stress.
Prepare for pop quizzes. Read the material (even though you don't want to) for 15 minutes every night - just in case.
Take notes on the material. Focus on concepts, definitions, and formulas that you think will be on the test.
Ask your teacher for help, both before and during the exam. Ask him or her what you should focus on while studying. Or, if you don't understand a question on the test, ask your teacher to clarify. Perhaps he or she will give you a study packet.
Take deep breaths while you're taking the test. Stay calm and pace yourself. When you're relaxed, you can remember things more easily.
Have your test-taking materials ready. You're already nervous, so the last thing you want to do is freak out if you can't find your pencil or pen.
Read the questions carefully and at least twice, in case you missed something before. Don't rush. If possible read the entire exam before beginning to work. This will give you an idea of what's in store and help you manage your time better. It also prevents any nasty surprises with only minutes left.
Look over your answers thoroughly when you're done and make sure you didn't make any mistakes. You might remember something more to add to the question as well.

Tips
When you take notes, try to write in shorthand. Write simply. Instead of writing "The plant draws water from the soil and oxygen and sunlight from the atmosphere so that it can perform photosynthesis", write: "Plant gets H20 from dirt & O + sun from atm. --> photosynthesis." Not only will this help you take notes more efficiently, but it will also be easier to remember.
The day before the test, make a study aid with a summary of everything and look it over on your way to school.
For many people it is better to never study the day before a test, because that day is when all the information you know organizes itself in your brain. You may or may not be this type of person; if you are you should not even think about the test or any related material exactly 24 hours before the test until it starts.
When you're reading material, skim through it first, and then read it thoroughly. After you're done, summarize what you've read in 1-5 sentences without looking at the text. This does wonders for helping your retain knowledge.
If a test question leaves you stumped, just skip it and come back to it later. You're better off spending your time on questions you know the answers to first.
When studying for a larger test/exam, study only for 1 hour at a time, then take a 10 min break- but don't play video games during the break, as they make it harder to learn.
This may not work for everyone, but chewing gum works wonders for concentration and stress. Careful though, some teachers don't like to see gum in their classrooms!
Get a tutor.

Warnings
Get 8 hours of sleep. If you're tired, you won't be able to concentrate.
Have a healthy breakfast. Hunger pains and a growling stomach will hurt your chances of getting an A.
Stress causes your body to release a chemical called cortisol, which can block your brain's ability to recall facts and memories. So, the most important thing is to stay calm and relaxed. Remember that if you don't do well on this test, it's not the end of the world.

Well, go to your mother , start crying and tell her how you tried but you couldn't do it and tell her that you will try some other ways to get good grades. you know I have seen that parents can see their children sad, so agar tum khud kabool kar logi to who tum ko tassali dain gi aur tumhara hosla barhayain gi. I hope it works. Best of luck
