this is not the first test, right? what were the issues on those previous tests?

I would say "I can't believe a teacher would send such a non-detailed email and expect any coherent response", but I've seen similar.

Suggestions? How can you make any suggestions without finding out what happened on the test and specifically what he means by 'goofing off'.
Bizarre.
