I think the biggest metaphorical 'slap in the face' anyone can give you is when somebody tells you or implies/alludes to you that you are just not good enough. To me, receiving back results from past exams and assignments can be THE biggest slap in the face. Especially if the result is less than desired. Because that number, or mark that you are graded for, somewhat defines you. The number tells you if you are succeeding, failing or just passing. If only your potential could be calculated into the end result as well...
