Find a way to motivate yourself! Ask for help from peers, siblings or even your teachers and work hard. Always ensure that you try your best and study hard; if you continue to achieve bad grades make peace and understand that you are struggling and need assistance or a tutor to help you.

When you have bad grades try going to someone who would help you in your progress. Homework places work the best.

Many people would say that grades are not important. But truth be told, they are crucial if you want to grow up to be a doctor or perhaps a lawyer. Yes, there are still people who are successful like Bill Gates. but hey, I don't think I'm that lucky to do so well without a degree. I used to be so anxious and uneasy whenever I received back my results (I still am) because it's either you meet your expectations or you don't. But I have come to realise that bad grades simply means that there's something that you do not know, maybe there is this mathematics formula that you aren't familiar with or a English word that you have never seen before, and the way to get over it is to simply find the answer to your mistakes. Getting bad grades is just part of life, sometimes you do well and sometimes you do not, and the crucial part is to not repeat the same mistakes again. Perhaps your current study method is not for you? Are you a visual, auditory or kinaesthetic learner? Do you perform better with sufficient sleep?
Bad grades are tough to deal with. You might feel miserable for not meeting expectations or perhaps even worthless but they can be fixed and it is not the end, there will be more tests to come (lots more). One thing you should not do is to get used to seeing bad grades, as some of my friends have succumbed to. It's normal to feel upset after receiving a bad grade and some may eventually believe that they are destined to not do well so they brush of bad grades as something they have gotten used to and as such, they do not put in as much effort as they should for upcoming tests. Okay, my point is that bad grades are not pleasant but do not let it dictate your day and learn from it.

Coping up with bad grades is always difficult if you have had a higher expectation from yourself. Even if your grades aren't what you expected doesn't make your future hopeless .
Try talking to someone who isn't involved in the situation like a friend, professors who can help you enhance your grade. Stop being irritative to people who taunt you or remind you of the same. Talk to your parents about why you scored less and ensure them to work harder the next time.
Don't panic and stop thinking about what you have received.
Make an action plan ( that you can strictly follow)
Finally be ready to move on . Even if the end results are not as you hoped then to be , they wont decide your future.Learn from mistakes or slip-ups you may have made that resulted in a less-than-ideal result, and apply it to the next thing that comes your way.
I hope my answer helps you :)

I try to remind myself that it isn't the end of the world. I know that seems obvious but it always hits hard to get grades that you feel like you can't recover from. It often helps me to plan for my next success as soon as I feel ready to, and what I mean is to keep note of what it was this time that you feel you need to change in order to succeed the next time, i.e. study earlier or engage in more repetition study to help the information stick, etc.

Bad grades is not such a big deal. Try to find why did you get the grades below your expectations. Since there is nothing as bad grades, it is simply your grades are below your expectations and there is a pitfall here to avoid is that do not set your expectations on some one else''s desire. It has to be your expectation. And once you find that out you would start to achieve the expected grades or even perhaps exceed your expectations.

First acknowledge and examine them. How bad are they? How will they impact you? Usually things aren't as bad as you think if you examine them closely. If they really are bad, ask yourself why are they bad? Do you have bad studying habits such as multi-tasking whilst doing your homework (watching t.v whilst doing assignments is an example). There's nothing much you can do about bad grades except for accepting they were bad and trying not to repeat the same mistakes that lead to them.
