How to convince a teacher to let you retake a test
Decide what it is that caused you to fail the test.
Did you not study? Did you get in a fight with your parents?
Understanding why you failed can help you prepare for a retake. Think about how much of this information you're willing to share with your teacher.

Choose from:
--Retaking your test does not mean that you are failing. Just that you are not in a great place to get advice and support as you work through your problems.
--There's a lot going on, so if you're trying to convince your teachers that you've gotten better grades at school, your teachers may be holding you back. If you weren't intentionally performing poorly, you may need additional help.
--Your teacher will understand if you are trying to convince her, and be able to help you plan your next class. If it is your teacher, you may struggle with retaking the test.
--They may ask the reason for the retake, and you should be honest. If it's personal, you can make general allusions: " family problems, " or " a difficult personal period.
