Exam in a dream
Dreaming of an exam, especially one you're not prepared for, usually speaks of a feeling that you're being judged by someone or that you're measuring yourself too harshly. It isn't a prediction of failure but a mirror of your conscience wanting to be good enough. Ask yourself who that examiner really is, and whether their standards are still yours.
The interpretation is a signpost, not a verdict — the dream is yours, and the one who dreamed it always has the last word.
