    Smile I’m lack of 13 points to pass

    Hello~ Can you help me say this naturally please?


    A: Oh, no..
    ⓐI’m lack of 13 points to pass this subject.
    Do you think teacher will do me a favor? If I beg him?

    B: Well, it’s 13 points, not 3 points man.
    ⓐBut anyway why don't you give a shot?

    1 I'm 13 points short of the passmark.

    2 It's OK, but I'd be tempted to get rid of 'but'.
