As you probably know, my time management is... trash.309Please respect copyright.PENANAQxAEbz92Dh
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 309Please respect copyright.PENANAW6GbcOMBNS
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.309Please respect copyright.PENANAa232aUORRE
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.309Please respect copyright.PENANAitdSIXr4Yv
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.309Please respect copyright.PENANAzoEBlQ8lsg
You can try fake a doctor's certificate, or make some lame excuse, but chances are, depending on the lecturer, it's pretty unlikely they'll give you a deadline if you make an excuse so late. 309Please respect copyright.PENANAObW7yvXekh
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.309Please respect copyright.PENANACWCalIGJSr
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:309Please respect copyright.PENANASLSAMRSrSs
Summer school assignment.309Please respect copyright.PENANAUxkMYT8B2k
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.309Please respect copyright.PENANAa8RGNnG8GD
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.309Please respect copyright.PENANAcl4vPqW5jO
The reason why this was number 3 was because while I was working on it, I was fairly confident I would finish it, and get a reasonable grade.309Please respect copyright.PENANAzXcIYW5YfR
309Please respect copyright.PENANAdfjcEuCRrb
Number 2:309Please respect copyright.PENANAAt03MN8ite
This JUST happened.309Please respect copyright.PENANAFu2UE0eeZm
So I was working on one of my hardest assignments yet, and the lecturer warned us plenty beforehand... but I had to start it on the last day.309Please respect copyright.PENANAuVLmjftC4D
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.309Please respect copyright.PENANAdrR6NNlWNA
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.309Please respect copyright.PENANAXynCebPOy3
Second time. Correct answer for the easy case. Time limit exceeded for the hard case... but 96% was correct. I knew my work was probably right, but it was too slow.309Please respect copyright.PENANAzeZOX59EIx
309Please respect copyright.PENANAhhdPWiq3NF
Oh, I was so close to giving up and leaving it right there. I almost did. Because... the thing is, while the due time was in 3 hours, the whole university site was going to go on maintenance in 10 minutes for 4 hours. 309Please respect copyright.PENANAkvp1gm27fA
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 309Please respect copyright.PENANABQwFYg5kQZ
Final try. Instead of changing the foundation of the harder parts, I looked at the easy part... and made a minimal change to my work, hoping that, it would somehow, somehow, make it fast enough.309Please respect copyright.PENANAkXTB2mPr4s
309Please respect copyright.PENANA0jxigRkykI
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.309Please respect copyright.PENANA4w3xN5FVX6
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?309Please respect copyright.PENANAhDYiWNkfUC
There's no way that small change could work.309Please respect copyright.PENANA6cdXzwh8Fh
309Please respect copyright.PENANAJBwZwjcR7Q
But ALAS, 10 minutes later, I refreshed the website, and TADA - I PASSED. I couldn't believe my eyes. The only reason why this is second is because technically it wasn't last minute.309Please respect copyright.PENANA0iD9VirbO6
309Please respect copyright.PENANAuADVerA26Y
Number 1:309Please respect copyright.PENANAVQlI49G2qp
It was a busy semester. I was stuck on an assignment, and my only chance was asking the lecturer on the day. However, I had work, and by the time I went into the lecturer's office, I only had 30 minutes to finish the question. 309Please respect copyright.PENANA9yNnMpl7Cm
He gave me some hints, and said to me that most people wouldn't get the question right, and it was nearly impossible to finish it in the time I got left.309Please respect copyright.PENANAcYgBvsiw5q
It's really stressful working last minute. I don't recommend it. Your mind goes blank for a few minutes, and you have to push yourself to not get overcome by the stress and THINK. THINK. THINK. 309Please respect copyright.PENANAGNAHL2XFWO
Ahh... thanks to the lecturer, I figured out the pattern of the question... but I didn't know how to implement it. Time was ticking. 5 minutes. 3 minutes. 309Please respect copyright.PENANAe7pc0vwayG
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.309Please respect copyright.PENANANCmYMHHTtX
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.309Please respect copyright.PENANAZ4W1TOLcbR
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.309Please respect copyright.PENANAdKsGsyY7qY
309Please respect copyright.PENANA84c9Au8M57
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.309Please respect copyright.PENANAToxqDAo1Ip
If you're not familiar with code... it doesn't run first try. But thank the stars Stack Exchange knew what they were doing, because it RAN. I saved my file, clicked submit in the last 10 seconds... and done.309Please respect copyright.PENANA0omk9Oq1Lr
The lecturer was impressed.309Please respect copyright.PENANAUl5eX2IgLS
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 309Please respect copyright.PENANAJR8o4RvUSf
When I didn't submit
There have been a fair number of times when I didn't submit an assignment, test, quiz on time. Hell, I miss a lot of quizzes. 309Please respect copyright.PENANAPFgCJuYJgp
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.309Please respect copyright.PENANAB9UJgtT2Ag
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.309Please respect copyright.PENANAX2TKeS6cOf
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.309Please respect copyright.PENANAXLoJ0dCTX2
309Please respect copyright.PENANAyqQvVvgr7f
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.309Please respect copyright.PENANA859lbFOL53
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.309Please respect copyright.PENANABwPwiCOiCE
Crap.309Please respect copyright.PENANAbgd844En4b
I emailed him again a while later, but I didn't expect it to be marked. Well... I was screwed for the test, anyway. I wasn't sure on so many of the answers.309Please respect copyright.PENANAT1PoK54nyk
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 309Please respect copyright.PENANALr8QuT0qZB
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.309Please respect copyright.PENANAXg3xjPjc65
I've also submitted assignments late. Just emailed my lecturer with proof that I've completed it during the same hour... and usually they let me go. It's become sort of a bad habit now... to 2-3 times per semester. I mean, you'll be pushing it if you do it more than once per course. Hehehe...
I swear my GPA isn't THAT bad. My average is just under A sitting at an A-. I really wanted to get that A though... unfortunately I cannot.309Please respect copyright.PENANA5GyOMeWsa3
309Please respect copyright.PENANAjcJN8ux3sf
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 309Please respect copyright.PENANA9CoNwCPeRN
Whoops.309Please respect copyright.PENANApSPrc6WApo
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!309Please respect copyright.PENANAOgc0T7T7d2
