Today, I failed a calculus exam because I simply was too burnt out to study for it. I have not wanted to even look at a math problem since the beginning of the year, and I procrastinate all day instead of doing work, and it leads me here, typing at 2 a.m. to random strangers while having to get up tomorrow at 7.

Today, I had a very hard and long exam and I was completely prepared for it. I was so confident in my abilities and I'd studied really hard. When I entered the exam hall and took the paper, I realized that I had forgotten to bring my calculator. FML

I hope you were able to overcome this hurdle, OP. And if you're still doing exams, write a note to remind yourself which one is next.

If you payed attention in class, you should be fine, unless you REALLY need that A+

Just keep focusing on science. Who uses math anyways? I mean, it’s not like if you go into science that you’ll need math to do your job,...wait.

In the grand scheme of things, this isn't the worst that the worst day of your life could be.

Fortunately for you, math *is* related to science.

Studying for a science exam is unlikely to help much at all though.

Even if you studied the right subject, chances were that you were not going to do well anyway. Trying to pack up all the information the night before the exam and showing up without having slept is a sure way to fail.
