As you probably know, my time management is... trash.368Please respect copyright.PENANAY22pHPRO1m
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 368Please respect copyright.PENANA6KwYLU8odA
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.368Please respect copyright.PENANACIkei68oqO
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.368Please respect copyright.PENANAOl63GsDtzp
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.368Please respect copyright.PENANAeOQJCMPJRF
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. 368Please respect copyright.PENANAArtaZb8lfQ
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.368Please respect copyright.PENANAj0NO71zhCR
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:368Please respect copyright.PENANAyEM4FkRGPU
Summer school assignment.368Please respect copyright.PENANA9r0geE3GAH
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.368Please respect copyright.PENANA8V3wL3W12A
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.368Please respect copyright.PENANAJiq0lrTYp3
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANAggut4umG9q
368Please respect copyright.PENANAk6ZQUCOZk2
Number 2:368Please respect copyright.PENANAsqJWOQJRXH
This JUST happened.368Please respect copyright.PENANAuTJgT95zGH
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANAO9mJrZBDmS
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.368Please respect copyright.PENANAmA94SmCd4Z
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.368Please respect copyright.PENANACBMTZx7HFw
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANA0WlFg0aJOg
368Please respect copyright.PENANALU2xcRiU1O
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. 368Please respect copyright.PENANAFcY1EYPaSD
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 368Please respect copyright.PENANAx5OmwICOjI
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANAJZwCruBk3X
368Please respect copyright.PENANAdwjcPnxsIw
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.368Please respect copyright.PENANAmtr8DQPboU
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?368Please respect copyright.PENANAwGWiKFeVt4
There's no way that small change could work.368Please respect copyright.PENANAbuMN3ESFsb
368Please respect copyright.PENANAvs7NxF4GPC
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANABADhoegn14
368Please respect copyright.PENANALfgBo5Gt9U
Number 1:368Please respect copyright.PENANA0mYefNrcSx
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. 368Please respect copyright.PENANAPMp2YFIDhP
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANAVdDJ9Y7WzT
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. 368Please respect copyright.PENANAWKv7bpFOcc
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. 368Please respect copyright.PENANAsspBnUYBLN
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.368Please respect copyright.PENANAMC6DdRaWlU
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.368Please respect copyright.PENANAg9jwev8bv7
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.368Please respect copyright.PENANAD0VCvOrFcQ
368Please respect copyright.PENANAoi0pG28f9k
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.368Please respect copyright.PENANAZKzhB8e0Eu
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANAYdBsc591FV
The lecturer was impressed.368Please respect copyright.PENANATpIaH2glWr
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 368Please respect copyright.PENANACimWjDfZoV
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. 368Please respect copyright.PENANA1C0OLtvSX3
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.368Please respect copyright.PENANA1ZQqOioaxR
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.368Please respect copyright.PENANAkjuDaAjVtp
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.368Please respect copyright.PENANA7PtxhFEIgW
368Please respect copyright.PENANAF6E7NU2aAc
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.368Please respect copyright.PENANAdiMyjkg8mN
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.368Please respect copyright.PENANAsqGgJAhKkX
Crap.368Please respect copyright.PENANApL2wRKRsuQ
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANAqzIuSelMP7
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 368Please respect copyright.PENANAloIzkW4a9Z
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.368Please respect copyright.PENANArfvll0TUIt
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.368Please respect copyright.PENANAnbdMK4IyG2
368Please respect copyright.PENANAVr6oGLtLXA
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 368Please respect copyright.PENANAFsRJrHDmWE
Whoops.368Please respect copyright.PENANANFnGNQyWpt
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!368Please respect copyright.PENANAdc7mxCsGSj
