68% on first unit test but thought I did great

Basically what the title says. I studied, did a practice quiz (got 85 and brushed up on the things I missed) and then took my actual unit test and got 68. The test didn't feel too hard, I have no idea what went so wrong. It was unit 1 and my friends all got 89 and up. I'm so frustrated and was wondering if anybody had study tips? I can not spend hours watching videos but if y'all have had success playing something in the background or practice tests that help that'd be great

Also: My teacher only lets us look at our tests once and so I haven't been able to see my test or mistakes yet and will only be able to do so when I do test corrections.

Thanks!

Risks of Minga hall pass?

Hey folks! My sibling's high school recently started using Minga for digital bathroom passes. They get a weird vibe from it (which is fair in the age of tracking everyone's data) and I wanted to check with people more knowledgeable than me about actual risks and dangers.

The basic overview of Minga is that it has students digitally sign out of class and then sign back in when they return. It also lets staff figure out groups of students that hang out in the hallways together and so just doesn't let one make a pass if someone else in their group is already out. It's 5ish minutes per pass, 30 (?) minute cooldown between passes, and 3 passes a day.

Am I crazy for thinking this is absurd and there's no reason to track students this closely in the bathroom? Looking at their website (minga.io) are there an legitimate security risks y'all can see?

[TOMT][PHOTO] Gas station sunset photo, vertical aspect ratio, car near the bottom of the frame, very contrasting oranges and blues

was either posted on reddit originally and reposted to tumblr or posted on tumblr

It has a vertical aspect ratio and the car is mostly in shadow with the main focus of the photo being the sunset. I think there are also silhouetted trees?
