I graduated in 94 and still have this exact dream. Kind of wish I would just have sex dreams like I did in junior high. lol

I had that dream for a period of years about a decade after I graduated. Strange dream.

One final in college I showed up an hour late to. I looked in and was like "they should be finishing soon" then realized it was my class. It was an intermediate economics class too. Walked in with 45 minutes left and finished before some of the people who started on time. Was my last semester and got like a B+
I was taking a final (coincidentally, also econ) which happened to be taught by the Dean. About ten minutes in, I was seized with a raging case of the runs. I walked up to the front desk and told him that he could fail me if he wanted, but if I didn't leave Right Now, this would be a final exam no one in this room would ever forget. I don't know if it was the stiff legged walk, the fact that all the blood had drained from my face, or just that he was just a cool guy (Dr. Lamar Jones, TYFYS), but he let me go take a dump and come back and finish the test.

Yep....I graduated 26 years ago and I had one of those dreams just last week. They have become infrequent now though.

All the time. It's always at my old HS or LSU and I forgot a project or missed test.
I also have HS Football dreams where I'm back in HS with my college frame/strength(I was only 16 my senior football season). I'm ready to crush it but I can't find a piece of equipment like a hip pad or mouthpiece and my old coach(really was an a-hole) is yelling at me by my last name.
The kicker is I have no idea why this happens. I did well in school and HS football. Maybe subconsciously wished I did better?

Exact same dream. For me it’s usually foreign language or some law school class I didn’t even know I was taking.
Posted on 4/4/21 at 7:44 pm to HailHailtoMichigan!
Yep, mine usually involves not tuning in some crazy long term paper or that I was failing multiple classes or something.

I don’t have one about a final exam but at least once a month I have one where I’m wayyyy behind. Usually a math class, sometimes English. It’s always that I haven’t been to class most of the semester and it’s always the last semester before graduating

I did for about 10 years after graduating.

I probably will now that there was a thread to plant it in my head.
I don't think I ever had one where it was final exam day. Just where it's April when I realize I haven't been to class.

It's probably something that's about to happen in your life that you could draw parallels to the dream on. Maybe something as simple as you'll be connected to something or someone important from that time frame in your life with a twist, where you're scared to mess something up. Maybe you're going to have somewhere important to be soon, and realize the importance of being there on time.
In my experience I think one thing it meant was, I was going to be reconnected to something from that time frame in life and had some similar dreams from that time frame about sports and connected multiple dreams over the course of a couple of years to be in the right place at the right time to make a big fat wad of easy money
It means something but there's a wide range of what.

I've had these same dreams for 28 frickin years since graduating HS.

I actually had them last night. It’s because you are anxious about something coming up
Posted on 4/4/21 at 8:58 pm to HailHailtoMichigan!
I lose track as to what were nightmares and what was real life tardiness.
Posted on 4/4/21 at 9:06 pm to HailHailtoMichigan!
I occasionally dream that I signed up for a class and forgot to attend until it’s time for the final. It can be disconcerting.

I still have all of these.
Forgot I scheduled class and realize right before major exam.
Extra eligibility and can find helmet or tie shoes.
The crumbling teeth one (seldom). More often I’m smoking something self-rolled and the contents of the cigarette/blunt/whatever it is gets in my mouth; I pull it out with my fingers but can never clear all of it out. Very weird.
Also back in high school nekkid (or with just my drawers) and nobody seems to notice. Most of those I can’t remember either where my locker is or the combination to the lock.
