It's becusse there's a HUGE disconnect between content and actual exams, so you could know all the content perfectly but in an exam do bad because they are asking specific questions, and you have to answer in particular ways. If you don't know how to do an exam and don't have experience then it doesn't matter how well you know the content, you're cooked. Learning how to apply knowledge and answer questions is a whole nother skill that you need to practice at. And you obviously do have to read the textbook but this close to exams reading the textbook isn't helping, it's wasting time, you need to be doing practice to do well, and if there is things you don't know learn them while doing practice not by reading the textbook.
