As you probably know, my time management is... trash.525Please respect copyright.PENANAqkZYDYt1vk
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 525Please respect copyright.PENANAyTi5k6XoEx
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.525Please respect copyright.PENANApGqZ5X0TIz
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.525Please respect copyright.PENANACmIgPgsccD
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.525Please respect copyright.PENANAzn2UklpgGZ
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. 525Please respect copyright.PENANA01I5ocBoPj
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.525Please respect copyright.PENANA40w6KUIrGS
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:525Please respect copyright.PENANAKulzU8Cuqr
Summer school assignment.525Please respect copyright.PENANAR4WPGBkgrU
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.525Please respect copyright.PENANAhJRNhxnM2q
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.525Please respect copyright.PENANAbWyDQGJQ3U
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANAtgiYIg5up4
525Please respect copyright.PENANAKjT00r8O1l
Number 2:525Please respect copyright.PENANArVh9Mlbbbw
This JUST happened.525Please respect copyright.PENANAdB4589T2Iv
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANAbHeu6HZAdI
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.525Please respect copyright.PENANA72DJnNpEQ8
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.525Please respect copyright.PENANA0fxBeWB3zP
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANAAXWp8jhUUQ
525Please respect copyright.PENANASHjABIHHxZ
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. 525Please respect copyright.PENANAg1wlGnmshd
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 525Please respect copyright.PENANAw84GB3OdgQ
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANA4fRg34Ma6C
525Please respect copyright.PENANAOStngL57xR
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.525Please respect copyright.PENANAmz5Ul3X8Fk
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?525Please respect copyright.PENANAYVL9TGo0Fs
There's no way that small change could work.525Please respect copyright.PENANAQDNvW5BS69
525Please respect copyright.PENANAtei4AnuuT8
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANA67P0m4WKJs
525Please respect copyright.PENANAKXn4ltfsD4
Number 1:525Please respect copyright.PENANAuke1ludRva
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. 525Please respect copyright.PENANA023SbkJCEz
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANA19kbnp9Ycp
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. 525Please respect copyright.PENANA4M5wZIyb5G
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. 525Please respect copyright.PENANAdfWwmBm6XW
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.525Please respect copyright.PENANAODqTeeC6JF
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.525Please respect copyright.PENANAVtSafB0OjZ
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.525Please respect copyright.PENANACLI2GNNPbr
525Please respect copyright.PENANAf1nwV8vICr
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.525Please respect copyright.PENANAVX3w8UdQv2
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANAj58ptlDDLF
The lecturer was impressed.525Please respect copyright.PENANA4HgpM3ZQyE
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 525Please respect copyright.PENANAs1ZwnC4kfm
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. 525Please respect copyright.PENANAO8RzxRynQR
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.525Please respect copyright.PENANA8przriqXuG
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.525Please respect copyright.PENANA5lN8EgYn7W
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.525Please respect copyright.PENANAj3mWtaT8z0
525Please respect copyright.PENANAa4gMXgIhsM
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.525Please respect copyright.PENANAXkAMjUmMvo
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.525Please respect copyright.PENANAtAMYWEYLKE
Crap.525Please respect copyright.PENANALJ9HvrwbDQ
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANAb2EGuZVIFC
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 525Please respect copyright.PENANAcgS42RVxCI
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.525Please respect copyright.PENANA9DS215E1ld
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.525Please respect copyright.PENANAxQ4Xh6Ec3f
525Please respect copyright.PENANAE4aSnsn5ax
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 525Please respect copyright.PENANABmSwb8Hzyb
Whoops.525Please respect copyright.PENANAeRmikCgGNN
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!525Please respect copyright.PENANAiH9CMKXpwP
