To all you peeps going through the hectic exam cramming sessions right now, have you ever had that nightmare where you walk into an exam room and realize you're completely fucked because you haven't done any studying at all? Well I got to experience that for real today folks! :dance

So I'm in one of those special programs where everyone takes the same shit and all the course codes are similar. So as I was copying down my exam schedule one bleak December morn, I noticed the exams were lined up in the order their numbers were! 302 was first, 354, 355, etc. So I was like, omw how convenient! ^_^ And I guess I didn't take a good look at the last two.

Some raging cunthole who made the exam schedule decided to play a cruel joke on the detail unoriented/careless individuals such as myself and had the last two exams reversed on the schedule, when every other course was in a neat little package. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

So I walk in to the exam after a lovely 3 hour cram session for the WRONG exam, and I sit down. Then the professor for the other course walks in and starts handing out the exams. And I'm like, wtf...why is she here. I turn to the person beside me and I'm like, "er this is 364 right?" And they're like..."ALOL. This is 456. Good luck."

Needless to say, it was probably the biggest OH FUCK moment of my life. And not just the "oh shit, I'm screwed" feeling you get when everyone stops PMing you right before the votes are read in an ORG, no. This is real life and stuff. I almost shat my pants. I literally did not do an ounce of studying for this exam at all. I opened the exam booklet and wanted to cry. :( :( :(










Fortunately for me, the course was easy as pie. I knew my shit and was doing well the entire semester anyway. I actually ended up doing ok on the exam, but that's beside the point.

But children, the moral of the story is...don't be like your gay and retarded uncle sp and bumblefuck your way through life. Study hard and for the love of god make sure you're studying for the right exam. :kudo

Zoinks :lol: glad everything worked out, at least! I was studying for my Elements/calc final before class today and the final was basically a compilation of all of our old exams, so I was studying those. What sucked was that one of the test questions on the final was one that I was JUST getting to reviewing before the teacher started handing out finals...so if I had gotten there even like one minute earlier and had that one extra minute of studying, I would have gotten to review that problem @_@

You're crazy lucky to have both exams in the same room. ^_^

I just got back from turning in a paper that was apparently due on the 13th. Somehow my brain had changed that to the 17th. -_-

The two exams aren't in the same room. :shifty Nor are the professors, or the course codes aside from the first three letters, really.

I'm just an idiot. ^_^

I've been out of college for over a decade and still have a recurring dream where I show up for a test/final and realize that I haven't been to said class in a few weeks or months. And it's the last semester of college for me and I think "if I fail this class I'll have to go to another semester of school!"

So yeah, common dream for sure. I guarantee your dreams and/or nightmares about finals won't dissipate after you graduate.

OMG that you went through that today. :scared: I'm glad it worked out anyway, and at least you're already done your studying for your last exam that you thought was today.

I've had that dream a lot too. :blink: Also ones where I have to give a presentation unprepared and have to make it up on the spot.

I've had a similar sinking feeling when sitting down for an exam that was light years harder than was taught in the lectures. I was feeling kind of like there two smileys: :blink: :scared: I could barely answer anything at all and was prepared to fail. I'm guessing everyone sucked at it because I passed somehow. :lol:

Such is life. :wub:

Yeah that happened way too often, but when it seems that crazy to you it usually does to everyone else. You just can't be sure of it at the time so it's impossible not to freak out. -_-

Plus as soon as you go into freak-out mode, it's so hard to even remember the simple shit you already knew how to do.

I hate school.

I had never experienced anything like that before. It was the one single exam paper where I looked at it with horror and then slowly flipped through the pages with eyes wide open, reading questions with the interminable blank space for working and answers that was way beyond my ability to give.

I blame the damn lecturer who prepared no one for how hard it was going to be. It was like being taught basic calculus and then asked to use it to prove set theory.

Ok I don't feel like starting a new thread for this so I'm just putting it in another thread where I talk about school.

But I just found out I aced an assignment I did completely last minute and half-assed thoroughly because it just would not END and thought I had FAILED for sure. :dance Oh life, why are you so ironic?

((((spnintendo)))) OMFG how fucking horrible! How come I have ADD and have never done anything like that? lol
Even in my 30s I still have this recurring dream that I have studied for my 7th form history exam at all and that I'm going to fail it. Which is so completely weird since I got an A on that exam and I haven't sat an exam since 1992.
:wtf2
I have the play dream too.
