Count the total number of steps in a piece and divide it into the number of steps you messed up and convert to a percentage and subtract from 100. Suppose there are 1,000 steps in a piece and you mess up 4. 100 - ((4/1000)) * 100 = 99.6% correct

So 4 mistakes is a very high A. You may find you're doing better in ballet than you think.
 
So my dance recital is coming up, and I'm really stressed this year. Mainly because I have Aspberger's Syndrome, and it's making me get frustrated and start crying when I miss a step in class. This is in front of my friends too, mostly they just ignore it though. My mother teaches the class, so I can't quit. I've begged her to take me out of the ballet dance , because I can't do it once all the way through without messing up and getting upset. It's so embarrassing, and I don't want to mess up on stage! She won't take me out because for some reason she thinks I can do it but I can't! How do I stop getting upset in class and do well on my recital in 3 weeks? HELP!!!
I'm 14 btw.
 
well coming from a dancer I dont think you should give up... but just practice now and when it gets closer to the show dont practice as much cuz that seems to make me more nervous, but even if you do mess up on stage its not the end of the wold just really work on having good facials so that way if you do mess up most peopl wont even notice
