I am only concerned about crying because when I get frustrated, the first thing I do is cry. I am afraid of getting frustrated or feeling stupid and then crying.

I see. as far as my going through the test there wasnt a lot of frustration. the test is set up in a way that you are supposed to eventually reach your educational limit...
im wondering if you are working yourself up. you know expecting the worst to happen when in actuality its not going to be that bad.
the test is set up in a way that it goes so fast from one activity and subject to another that you most likely wont have a chance to get frustrated over not being able to get it right. you are not supposed to get every question right? why because you are not a programmed computer that knows everything in the universe and beyond. some of the questions you will not know the answers to and depending on what your school levels you attended you are not supposed to know the answers to. like my examiner told me "you didnt take college level physics class so you are supposed to get some of these wrong, just do your best and lets see what your science abilities are " my science level was 10th grade, so what I wasnt and am not a rocket scientist or engineer.
my point is you are not supposed to be able to answer and do everything. you are not supposed to get 100% for a grade on this. Each test looks at something different and when you get between 3-5 wrong that test section is completed. if you are not a doctor you are not going to know much about this and if you have never taken that course you wont know the answers to this or that.
its just a test that will tell you what you know and what you dont know. and if you want to improve and learn more you can go back to school or self study on your own kind of test. you already know you are not the lowest IQ of for example mental retardation. and you already know you are not a know everything in the universe genius, so now just go into the test with lets see where I am in this world of average and have fun doing some of the activities.
breath relax and have some fun learning more about yourself and what you already know from going through school and from what you have learned in other ways.
