Comment-ça = no hyphen
un test = intelligence test? There are tests and there are test. Take the word "test" in English, look up all the French possiblities and THEN take each French word and look up the primary English meaning!
physical, moral, mental = une epreuve
exam = un examen
trial = un essai
of intelligence = un test
NOW choose the best choice, depending upon the context, or exactly how the word is used.

I can't tell from C and N if either is feminine, and if so, watch all adjectives.

Tu dois rester (infinitive or it's a run-on sentence)....et ne pas venir (negative infinitive)

If you begin the question with "Est-ce que" the rest is straight word order = tu plaisantes......besoin de reposer. (the only form of a verb that can follow a preposition is an infinitive - memorize that!)

Est-ce que tu mets...

Sorry, but without the English of what you are trying to say, I don't know how to fix "Tu dois me savoir mieux...

Reláche = affirmative command.

Tu es jetes = definitely an error. Do you want present tense or past tense? Tu jetes... OR Tu as jeté..

Si je manque plus...

Tu t'inquiètes trop = Reflexive verb

Non, ce n'est pas vrai.....tu n'inquiètes pas...

Avaler = is the infinitive = to swallow. don't you require a command? Avale

Decide before you begin if you want to use tu or vous and be consistent = une perte de ton temps! Listen to me? = Écoute-moi

(He walks away? = Il s'en va à pied)
(shrugs = il se hausse les épaules)

Sra (aka Mme)
