I remember the first time I failed a test, I was locked up in a cupboard and denied any food and water for three days. + Show Spoiler +
Obviously I'm joking , but my parents did whoop my ass so hard that for the next few days I had to walk with my feet 2ft apart. She got a light scolding from our mom.
OP, glad to hear that she was ok in the end. I started wondering if her heart got broken or something which is why she was crying. Glad that it was only a failed test though those things (rather failing a course) hurt like a bitch T.T

Poor kids who have such a teacher.
econ's just one of those classes where you memorize facts/formulas. Just turns out that the facts/formulas are made up and can't be applied where the axioms of "econ world" don't hold.
And when you have axioms such as "people are rational" yeah, gl finding those people

If it were a boy who came home like that, you'd think maybe he got beat up or something, emphasizing the stereotypical male role in conflicts.
Probably it's pop fiction / TV's fault
How many women get raped? Now compare that to how many men get raped.
