As you probably know, my time management is... trash.329Please respect copyright.PENANAuhF2fUhZZR
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 329Please respect copyright.PENANA6Zi7CEtB6p
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.329Please respect copyright.PENANAXJ04RkjCn7
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.329Please respect copyright.PENANAM7rYvjH654
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.329Please respect copyright.PENANAtXrJSsATPW
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. 329Please respect copyright.PENANA6AuN2JGT07
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.329Please respect copyright.PENANArGW8Yn7VgL
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:329Please respect copyright.PENANAmeLKVgb32d
Summer school assignment.329Please respect copyright.PENANAkTmyVF61rN
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.329Please respect copyright.PENANATLzWKTIWfB
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.329Please respect copyright.PENANAJ3sbuWDOOY
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANATNtk9yJsAe
329Please respect copyright.PENANA1ftMq261Ms
Number 2:329Please respect copyright.PENANAamc1I2ArG8
This JUST happened.329Please respect copyright.PENANAkg9IaXMgAN
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANAtB0AFNjOr4
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.329Please respect copyright.PENANAVxYjBAnBRu
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.329Please respect copyright.PENANACaccEkg55g
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANALjlEibjvqk
329Please respect copyright.PENANAg9alnLuzYN
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. 329Please respect copyright.PENANAl4ze3tBjEE
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 329Please respect copyright.PENANA03CvTzFfjH
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANASnqZnibDeD
329Please respect copyright.PENANA8m0vaOXo6S
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.329Please respect copyright.PENANA3BLbDx8C6o
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?329Please respect copyright.PENANA6hLXrtXcVK
There's no way that small change could work.329Please respect copyright.PENANArpgf1MVQZh
329Please respect copyright.PENANAD4SUcAfIrh
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANAZBRvsDvWMi
329Please respect copyright.PENANAXAVUVkonCa
Number 1:329Please respect copyright.PENANAXzasG0mE5P
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. 329Please respect copyright.PENANAKCRDfVJ3Oe
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANAHe8ReFbhSN
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. 329Please respect copyright.PENANAZr1IsNUEQX
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. 329Please respect copyright.PENANAjboTYQ5baL
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.329Please respect copyright.PENANAst3UfaSmdU
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.329Please respect copyright.PENANAF5wwsnsi8q
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.329Please respect copyright.PENANAqqtJqNxgGh
329Please respect copyright.PENANAd9Wd6FYXUj
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.329Please respect copyright.PENANADyLOAWV0tK
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANAQhf3nRkDir
The lecturer was impressed.329Please respect copyright.PENANAq4hVARXfjd
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 329Please respect copyright.PENANAi5vHwS7AK1
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. 329Please respect copyright.PENANAAa6UZGADYj
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.329Please respect copyright.PENANA4WiMeML7cu
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.329Please respect copyright.PENANA0u9wr07qXT
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.329Please respect copyright.PENANAIcwfDdSmjT
329Please respect copyright.PENANAJiVq1XemzH
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.329Please respect copyright.PENANAu7hiXKItd2
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.329Please respect copyright.PENANAtZ54Qg3qPx
Crap.329Please respect copyright.PENANAQdMDzkLFN5
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANAchxr45m8QM
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 329Please respect copyright.PENANAB5ZlkC7NT7
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.329Please respect copyright.PENANAUKE5VuNr1i
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.329Please respect copyright.PENANA87DodA0ZaW

To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 329Please respect copyright.PENANAkhUmdAvc92
Whoops.329Please respect copyright.PENANAHpqWqQv2Jn
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!329Please respect copyright.PENANAkmAxHSnUSZ
