Shed tears and took test again (5)
I believe the answer is:
resat
'took test again' is the definition.
'shed tears' is the wordplay.
'tears' anagrams to 'RESAT'.
But, I'm unsure how the anagram is indicated.
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for resat that I've seen before include "did test again" , "Tried to pass again" , "was tested again" , "went back to the paper" , "Took another chance to pass" .)
