Finals week is this week and for most college students, it will be the worst week of the semester. As the most dreaded week of college life, you'll start to question whether going to college was a good choice or not. If you have one, two, or five finals like me, it is guaranteed you will be under some sort of stress leading up to your last final. However, the week will surely end, and summer will start. You'll hopefully get to enjoy the three months of freedom you have. With that, here are the 11 stages of finals week!
1. The amount of work you have puts you in denial.
Recommended for you
Between final papers, tests and presentations, it may seem like a never ending process.
2. The stress kicks in.
Then, once you realize how much work you actually have to do, you start flipping out and wondering when you will be able to finish it all.
3. Finally, you get the energy to study.
You don't know where to start so you just end up reading your whole textbook.
4. And you didn't retain any information.
You are doomed when you hit this stage...
5. Everything else besides studying is entertaining to you.
Netflix, food, games on your phone, you name it—it is entertaining and a great distraction from studying.
6. And you literally just do not care anymore.
You hit that point where you feel like you cannot study anymore. Whatever you get on the test is going to be what you get on it.
7. You pull an all-nighter studying for your exam last minute because you procrastinated.
Then, maybe you feel like if you study for a couple more hours, you will be able to do well on your exams.
8. You walk into the test accepting failure.
The morning of the test after pulling an all-nighter is the worst. Especially, if you are too tired to remember the material.
9. After getting the test, you look for answers you know, but your mind just goes blank.
Looking for those keywords you studied is getting you absolutely nowhere.
10. Regardless of how you did on the test, you are happy you're done with finals week.
Who cares if you failed your test! You are officially done with finals!
11. Until next semester...
Good luck with finals everyone!
