Failed
On 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?

Monasteries
We read a letter written by St. Benedict regarding the proper way to organize a monastery - sort of a closed, mafia-like operation with grandiose pretensions. Then we had to answer the question: "What does this letter say about the political legacy of the Roman Empire?" I answered that Benedict didn't mention the Roman Empire at all, instead focusing on mundane niceties like who was to harvest the grapes and who was to pray.
Analogies always escape me....
