Dear Girls’ World, I got my first bad grade and I’m so upset about it. I’m scared that I’m going to keep getting bad grades now! — Disappointed in myself

Don’t worry: One bad grade isn’t a sign of more bad grades to come! Everyone has certain subjects that are more difficult for them. It sounds like you take a lot of pride in being a good student, which means you always try your best. If the subject of your test is one that really gives you a tough time, ask your teacher for extra help. Grasping the topics that were hard for you will give you confidence to ace your tests for the rest of the year!
