As you probably know, my time management is... trash.488Please respect copyright.PENANAU3TN9Ek9d3
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 488Please respect copyright.PENANAUlCC5xRNhP
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.488Please respect copyright.PENANADVDp4CCgAk
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.488Please respect copyright.PENANAbuLd4XmbFd
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.488Please respect copyright.PENANAbEmfA5Ey6l
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. 488Please respect copyright.PENANAVitNv6lIv2
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.488Please respect copyright.PENANA8kV15KMLj5
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:488Please respect copyright.PENANAQSj92sToB2
Summer school assignment.488Please respect copyright.PENANA4jcrqYzrDK
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.488Please respect copyright.PENANABc4kviToNr
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.488Please respect copyright.PENANAGknN4rrKYk
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAUqvpoPe2ni
488Please respect copyright.PENANAcAFNL8aSoQ
Number 2:488Please respect copyright.PENANAe0mMLzJXNf
This JUST happened.488Please respect copyright.PENANAH3VqPbMtmO
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANABjeGVOV4sw
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.488Please respect copyright.PENANA2e86W1uG0R
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.488Please respect copyright.PENANA48j1NzCwme
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAHpheUWGTLn
488Please respect copyright.PENANANGGFXjVxWZ
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. 488Please respect copyright.PENANAT8dXh2kKFC
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 488Please respect copyright.PENANA5L5gE60wQk
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANA1rw8kWhWOX
488Please respect copyright.PENANARbnwGA6xjS
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.488Please respect copyright.PENANAw0gFWCUh9e
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?488Please respect copyright.PENANAIrNdnP4emc
There's no way that small change could work.488Please respect copyright.PENANAIt2tzcJXtJ
488Please respect copyright.PENANA0PrrR8Dp47
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAon1z0gCm4p
488Please respect copyright.PENANAnvdOrMk45W
Number 1:488Please respect copyright.PENANA3tkItjOFUg
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. 488Please respect copyright.PENANAjS6TqRzo8d
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAYBLGSWZ4nd
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. 488Please respect copyright.PENANAYW7hqhisFi
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. 488Please respect copyright.PENANAG4Za4vEAcp
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.488Please respect copyright.PENANAoubNZ6PdfL
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.488Please respect copyright.PENANAAeKG3bnU1q
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.488Please respect copyright.PENANAt3bRCgbWZJ
488Please respect copyright.PENANACQi7k3mK6S
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.488Please respect copyright.PENANAjeJOWl6t00
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAoFs5uQ8Bhw
The lecturer was impressed.488Please respect copyright.PENANAHm4fVKiEbA
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 488Please respect copyright.PENANAzVIkWJs6Ub
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. 488Please respect copyright.PENANA9jWTXpf0Ml
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.488Please respect copyright.PENANAM6E5JoMTix
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.488Please respect copyright.PENANAYMHmRoUDfs
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.488Please respect copyright.PENANA78d0FKbgcv
488Please respect copyright.PENANAgKvxMNZEGs
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.488Please respect copyright.PENANAffrya4u296
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.488Please respect copyright.PENANAuZsxXuwLNk
Crap.488Please respect copyright.PENANAUvo6nfG4Cx
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAlDv3EQuV00
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 488Please respect copyright.PENANAw3lUXYCC6U
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.488Please respect copyright.PENANACxLaAPkfw9
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.488Please respect copyright.PENANAQXXDVJtrt0
488Please respect copyright.PENANAaTZO6Y1VFI
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 488Please respect copyright.PENANAPESNiR3lBl
Whoops.488Please respect copyright.PENANAKUqIlzqvv4
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!488Please respect copyright.PENANAWOYB33in5a
