Can you tell me if I caught the meaning of these two phrasal verbs in this context, please?
The context is this: Let's picture I'm a student and I'm in the class and my teacher is standing in front of me. I was absent the day before and I ask him if I can do the test I didn't do.
1) Can I make it up tomorrow? I'd like to have a good mark at the end of the semester.
2) Can I do the test over?
In the first, it should mean that I didn't do the test and I want to do for the first time.
In the second, it should mean that I did the test but maybe it is full of errors and I'm asking to do it again.
Is it correct? Are the two verbs used with the correct meaning?
Thanks so much for your help.
