Third time's the charm

Some time last year, I took a language exam, consisting of four parts: comprehension, listening, writing and speaking.

Out of the four, I managed to only pass the speaking part.
 

I decided to only repeat the writing part because if you are able to speak and write a language,it proves that you can understand it.

However, I failed the second attempt. In fact, my marks this time were much lower than the first time.

So, I decided to let it be for now. Maybe, I will give it a try some time later.

Nevertheless, my friend thinks that I should just give it another go since third time's the charm.
