Today, I had a Biochemistry exam. I studied all night but took a nap to get some rest because my exam was in the morning. I woke up at 10, feeling very confident. My exam was at 9. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I woke up at 5 and studied for my 9:30am exam for 4 hours. When I left my dorm at 9, it was dark outside. Turns out I slept through the entire day and woke up at 5pm. FML
Today, I stayed up all night to study for my anatomy final at 9 a.m. I studied outside the testing room in the hall all night. Apparently, I fell asleep with my headphones on, as my friend woke me up after walking out of the test, asking how I did. 300 classmates walked by and no one woke me up. FML
Today, I pulled an all-nighter to finish rereading my set work for my English exam. I managed to finish earlier than expected and decided to get some sleep. I then promptly slept through my alarm and missed my exam. FML
Today, I studied all night for a big test. I ended up falling asleep on the bus ride there. I woke up in a different province. FML
Today, I had the worst day of my life. I'd studied science for the whole damn night, only to realize the next morning that it's a math exam. FML
Today, as I was leaving for my chemistry exam, I stepped on one of the countless sheets of chemistry notes that littered the floor following last night's studying. I managed to slip and knock myself out in my own living room. FML
Today, I had to get to class at 9:00 to take a test. I woke up at 6:00, and figured I could wait a few minutes before getting ready. The next thing I knew, it was 10:30. FML
Today, after studying for an exam, I decided to take a short nap. Just then, our neighbors, who were a couple, argued like crazy about some dumb thing the guy did. I didn't get to rest at all. FML
Today, I took an exam, for which I have been studying for weeks, I was confident at first, but then really struggled with it. I finished with about ten minutes to spare, turned to what I thought would be the end of my paper and found the first page of questions I was supposed to have answered. FML
Today, I had an important test at 7 in the morning, so I sat the alarm at 6 o'clock and fell asleep. Later I was woken up by a call from my friend asking me why I didn't show up for the test. It was 9:30. I'd sat the alarm at 6:00 PM. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

I don't think you should have studied all night for a quiz.... maybe if it was a test but not a quiz

YOU DESERVE IT. LOTS of people are in college, what makes YOU so special? Set multiple alarms - NOT THAT HARD. HAHAHHAHAH

Agreed with #15. If your body is super-tired and really needs sleep, multiple alarms might not do you any good.

That's why you don't start studying the night before.

Well, you can always not really study. Just listen 30-50% of the time in class, do your homework, take a few pages of notes, skim them a bit, and you're set. Works for me.

oh no, you missed a QUIZ?! NOT A QUIZ!!! that's .005% of your grade you'll never get back to re-do!

umm actually if you understood what a lot of college classes are like, sometimes only 3 quizzes and two tests make up your whole entire grade. so yea, i'd say that missing a quiz can be pretty important. and besides, it still just sucks to sleep through a quiz you crammed for. i mean, i cram alllllllll the time. that's how i got through life. even in elementary school i'd do projects the night before and study the night before. now it's just gotten to the point where i dont even start studying until at least 12 midnight. at that's fine, it's worked for me. i just now realize that i CANNOT sleep if i want to be able to wake up if the sleep period would be less than 4 hours..lol. it's fine, i'm doing extremely well. everyone works differently. i feel for you, OP, i really really od!! :)

If you can't wake up. Sleep all day. Study all night.
