As you probably know, my time management is... trash.575Please respect copyright.PENANA9D5N1eiHJG
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 575Please respect copyright.PENANAkx21fL3BdE
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.575Please respect copyright.PENANAAVby6WSSQ9
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.575Please respect copyright.PENANAc1dsQD3qxh
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.575Please respect copyright.PENANAztDzqonOWi
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. 575Please respect copyright.PENANAlFnET8g7wV
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.575Please respect copyright.PENANAxGhuBh82Ev
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:575Please respect copyright.PENANAsTD87G4SfZ
Summer school assignment.575Please respect copyright.PENANAwWiHBjkVSF
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.575Please respect copyright.PENANAUM5SlAuCJv
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.575Please respect copyright.PENANAGhj1MB5Xah
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANA61XkCwx861
575Please respect copyright.PENANAz8bcItOvXA
Number 2:575Please respect copyright.PENANAVIVJC5IjWD
This JUST happened.575Please respect copyright.PENANAMUx2lkQY8f
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANArO9vBKyyKQ
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.575Please respect copyright.PENANAC0OgsNAXKS
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.575Please respect copyright.PENANAzTLzO8I2VW
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANAfHi6xFIsIp
575Please respect copyright.PENANA1dPzWGgPRf
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. 575Please respect copyright.PENANAUlnU20UTYn
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 575Please respect copyright.PENANA5JUHhcwy0r
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANAFwRrdrx0tU
575Please respect copyright.PENANA7n91EYwTyf
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.575Please respect copyright.PENANAfcKbXoSzdZ
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?575Please respect copyright.PENANAXm0TM6KqGJ
There's no way that small change could work.575Please respect copyright.PENANA9z1TGzQOTu
575Please respect copyright.PENANAPDUsIRAloz
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANAZVjFSXC2hE
575Please respect copyright.PENANAOvDPoGwqoz
Number 1:575Please respect copyright.PENANAoQOvp8aFkL
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. 575Please respect copyright.PENANAjt15epvFYx
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANAfqYInZGjEL
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. 575Please respect copyright.PENANAVKLnTfMfzv
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. 575Please respect copyright.PENANAbpc40mQQHY
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.575Please respect copyright.PENANAjiMOwUCWS2
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.575Please respect copyright.PENANAB7qkhZpjA0
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.575Please respect copyright.PENANASwDkE5Wlh0
575Please respect copyright.PENANAm8n7Le8xyq
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.575Please respect copyright.PENANAawxh2p57D4
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANAfs1zT38nyR
The lecturer was impressed.575Please respect copyright.PENANA5HFgpHsA7O
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 575Please respect copyright.PENANAVFuYwXTOm3
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. 575Please respect copyright.PENANADQKZ5UGB0g
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.575Please respect copyright.PENANAUIN54Q2fFa
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.575Please respect copyright.PENANA53nsl0mWNw
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.575Please respect copyright.PENANA8sr6loIxUz
575Please respect copyright.PENANAleBZ7QjOmu
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.575Please respect copyright.PENANAd3KU8Q3EfW
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.575Please respect copyright.PENANAZ0BCiTDrjw
Crap.575Please respect copyright.PENANASPkKh2pIfQ
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANASldU4c2nJE
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 575Please respect copyright.PENANA3KNHDui6ui
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.575Please respect copyright.PENANA7jTRCBWecD
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.575Please respect copyright.PENANAU8cBvxsQzN
575Please respect copyright.PENANARImykHf6SX
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 575Please respect copyright.PENANAr2oSqlLMFy
Whoops.575Please respect copyright.PENANAYwIQf5pAj4
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!575Please respect copyright.PENANA67E2UmPOR2
