Luke approaches you before class and expresses his frustration about having done so poorly on yesterday's exam. "i studied for hours and hours," he tells you. "i guess i'm just not a very good test taker." you know that your test was a good measure of what you taught your students. you also know that students seldom do poorly on your tests simply because they are poor test takers. considering the textbook's discussion of study strategies, what other possible explanation might you give luke as to why he thought he knew the material well yet earned a low test score?

Luke didn't have an effective strategy to monitor his comprehension

Explanation:

Whenever people experienced failures, our first defense mechanism will most likely influence us to blame external factors rather than acknowledging there might be something wrong with the way we conduct things.

In luke's case, he might developed that view because he never really been exposed to an effective method that brought success to his test scores. Because of this, the only outcomes that he's experienced are only failures and he never really found a strategy that can work to overcome it.

To fix this, Luke need to communicate with other successful students and ask their study method in order to conduct a trial run and find which method suit him the most.
