13 Thoughts You Have While Taking Exams

Because every college student knows the exam struggle, and it's real.

Aug 23, 2016

What's the point in ONLY thinking about the exam, while your taking the test? Minds wander. It's no big deal, and it's perfectly fine. Here are just a few thoughts that tend to go through my mind while I take all of these different tests..

1. That All Nighter Last Night Was Not Worth It.

2. This Exam Is Only Going To Take 20 Minutes, WHY Do I Have To Be Here For Two Hours.

3. My Bed Is Actually Calling My Name

4. "Don't Stop Believin'!"

5. WWJD (What Would Jesus Do?)..... Probably Finish This Exam

6. Oh No..... We Only Have 20 Minutes Left, Crap.

7. Who Said Being The Last One Taking The Exam Is Bad, However That Guy That That Got Up And Left Because He Finished First Most Definitely Failed, He Should Be Ashamed.

8. I Should Go Home And Sleep After This, Yeah That Sounds AMAZING!

9. "Just Keep Swimming, Just Keep Swimming!" -Dory

10. WAIT! Why Is She On Question 35 And I'm Only On 20! Am I Missing Some Super Power You Need To Take Exams..... Oh no.

11. Okay So My Next Exam Is In Three Hours Away, If I'm Careful, I Can Squeeze Food, Nap Time, Music Time, Friend Time and Study Time In There.

12. 3 Hours Later.... What Happened

13. One Day All Of This Schooling Will Be Worth It.... Maybe.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings.

To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
