HEEEEEEELP

Hello i have a big problem...i saw my toefl scores and they`re not that good as i thought...well i went to another city in order to have it done ...it was difficult for me 'cause i don`t have an english teacher who can help me and offer me some guidance and i had to study by myself at home with some online tests and downloaded programs...anyway that's not the problem ...i need an advice ...i did a super big and stupid mistake and i have chosen the option to send my resultats to the universities i applied at ...but now not having a good enough score i dont know at all what to do ...someone did suggest that i should write them and tell them that i`ll take it again and this time i'll do better and i`ll work harder in order to pass it with the required score even higher so in other words i`ll promise them this and ask for a second chance(it`s certain that i'll hire a private english tutor to teach and correct me and beside my school homework and other stuff i have to do i`ll work as hard as i can every fu.. day until i dropp ..) ..but i dont know what to do and i`m kinda desperate here, plus i feel so ashamed and full of guilt and i began to hate myself for being so stupid especially when i know that my friend passed it with only 4-5 hours studying with his teacher...i`m all gloomy and i did cried a lot so pls HELP ME
thank you in advance whoever you are =d
