I'm sorry. It's hard but sometimes we need these failures to learn how to do better next time. I can't count how many times I failed at something but kept on going. Don't worry about what others think. They should know it's a hard test. There is nothing wrong with admitting failure. I failed a class in my nursing school and it was due to being sexually assaulted -which wasn't my fault! But I was so ashamed to tell people I failed, especially fellow classmates. Just tell them, if they think any less of you, it's THEIR problem, not yours.
