FailedOn my third driving test, I turned right out of the test centre, reached a pedestrian crossing, attempted to run over a little old lady, was prevented from doing so by the examiner grabbing the wheel, then proceeded straight back to the test centre.
The drive home was very, very quiet. I've never felt such a complete failure.
What have you failed at?

A levelEnglish Lit (mock), 1987. We did Richard II (Shakespeare, dull as ditch water). I got a "c" in the real thing, but in the mock I got a "u". The question was something like "Discuss the various aspects of John of Gaunt's character" - a invitation to pop an adverb into the sentence "JoG is___, we know this because in Act_, Scene_ he says "(insert tenuous quote)".
My answer was well structured (intro, main body, summary) but only made 1 point (which I summarised concisely).
Apologies for length
