Sounds like you had a bad dream. Go back to sleep.

went to bed right after that. I do this every day and tend to have no problem waking up to my alarm at 7:15 (8 AM class.) I've never been so pissed off at myself this fricking sucks. He seems like a chill guy, and like I said I have an A.


You're in college and wake up every day on 4 hours of sleep???

If the professor follows the book, he could fail you for missing the final exam, since that's a required grade. Would be cruel, but it's within the rules.

More than likely, if you're a great student and you just tell your professor honestly what happened he/she will let you take the makeup with no penalty, or a small one. Talk to the professor ASAP. Don't wait.

In my experience, professors will go out of their way to help the good, hard-working students through problems like this. They want you to be successful. If you're a C student that rarely attends class, the professor won't throw you a lifeline.

Good luck. I'm getting ready for my finals, as well.

I've heard of people doing this, but never would have thought I'd be one. I have a fricking A in the class. Already emailed the teacher and plan to drop by his office hours at 12. Nervous as frick.


I did this one time. I told the professor I broke down and that a BRPD gave me a ride home and I had my car towed to a shop. I then had the officer call the professor and verify my bogus story.


It worked and I got to take my Geology final.

Then you should have no problem passing it next semester.

ETA: Also, you will have nightmares about this or a similar scenario for the rest of your life, so just get used to the feeling now. (Source: I have these nightmares)

If you can get your roommate to commit suicide I think you'll get all A's for the semester.

This is the definition of college. I also started my day at 1this semester on MWF so I caught up on sleep those days. I have one class on Tuesday/ Thursday and it was at 8. It wasn't hard to get up from one class, and come back home and go back to sleep.
