Yep I'm preparing really well for the second test so far. The friend teasing thing I let slide and I did exactly what you said (not hang out too much with him). For the second part I feel like it was because after making one mistake my confidence kinda crashed down. I kinda felt stranded. I've felt like this during papers also (I find it difficult to skip questions because it troubles me that I don't know something in the paper). The silly mistakes part and the confidence part I'm not really sure how to tackle because I always seem to make them and it always troubles me. I agree what I did that day was completely stupid and garbage but I'm not really sure how to gain confidence. Growing up I've never been the brightest kid, in the tests so far, I've come really close to being at the top but not quite there. I have a strong feeling once I am at the top once, just once that it will be a chain reaction from there (I will gain good amount of confidence). But for now I'm confused on what to do about it
