It is foolish that one test could mean so much, and I don't believe that is the real problem here... merely a symptom. It is just something that she falls back on when she's angry/frustrated with you. The thing we need to figure out is why she feels the need to get angry towards you.
To me, it seems she feels you are constantly judging and rating her. Maybe you aren't doing so intentionally, but it seems like she is percieving your words and actions as such. Or perhaps she just feels that she's not good enough for you, so she feels paranoid that you're looking for some reason why she's not. Either way, this test is an easy thing for her to project these frustrations on because there is an objective value to compare, something which so far has made it clear she's not "even" with you.
My advice is to try and see things from her perspective from now on and act accordingly... show her that you will love her unconditionally. Tell her all the things you love about her which are truly unique to her. Eventually, she will become more confident that she is deserving of your love and these symptoms will go away.
