Had it happen in real life .
Freshman year.. chemistry.
Class met at 9am on respective days.. but for some reason the final was scheduled at 8....
I’m out in the hallway before 9 and nobody is out with me... so I peek into the classroom and see my prof and classmates taking the final and I start shaking... she lets me in to take it at like 8:45 and my hands were shaking so hard.

Pretty common dream for the privileged

I haven’t gotten these but I would get them so freakin bad in college
There would be mornings I would dream about being late then jump out of bed and start running outside until I realized it was only like 5 am
Would make me so mad

I still have those dreams and I have graduated college over a decade ago.

IF you are in a stressful job and wondering if you can accomplish a task at work i believe this is a quite common dream. Left my stressful job from a few years back and the dreams have stopped. I was so stressed out my dreams would leave me wondering if i graduated college because couldnt pass final exam. Was at the point where i needed to put my framed degree next to the bed just to confirm graduated college

When I was in school I had these dreams often - forgetting to go to class, forgetting about an exam, or forgetting pants.
A few months ago I had a weird dream about being late for a math class - so I finally get to class and the teacher is fussing - then I realized I’m older, have a couple of degrees so I don’t need this class - I tell the teacher this. And it became the hotel California - luckily I woke myself up

Maybe it was just a dream

I graduated more than long enough ago for these types of dreams to stop, but not only are they not stopping, they are getting more frequent.
I am 62 and I still get one occasionally. Only mine seem to always be that I have to go take a final for a class that I never went to all semester and I need it to graduate and I dont know where the final is...

I've been out of college longer than that and I still get them.
The worst is that I've somehow voluntarily gone back to college and I'm aware in the dream that I didn't have to be doing this.

I did for about 10-15 years after college. Finally ended at about the same time I quit having the awesome dream of having one more year of eligibility and got to play High School Football again....hated waking up when I had those.

Same. And that’s exactly the variation I have pretty often. Weird.

Mine is always me reizing i need to graduate and showing up to the last class before the exam and getting "well someone decided to show up today"

Ya this is a variation as well

Sometimes. I have a lot of dreams/nightmares of being a waiter. I waited tables and bartended in my early 20s

For many years I had a recurring dream that for some reason my high school made some type of mistake and my friends and I all had to go back and repeat some classes. Also had a similar recurring dream where I would get super dizzy and couldn’t walk more than a few steps without falling down. I would literally dream for an entire night of trying to unsuccessfully walk a few steps. I have issues
