As you probably know, my time management is... trash.480Please respect copyright.PENANA7ecQFgDZO3
This leads to me finish assignments last minute... literally. 480Please respect copyright.PENANA87ifb6W0wh
Sometimes, I don't finish it at all.480Please respect copyright.PENANAvtIY7IpOyk
And if you're familiar with university life, assignments count towards your grade. Quite a bit, sometimes.480Please respect copyright.PENANAYpSDsZWFxc
And if you don't hand it in on time, well, that's that.480Please respect copyright.PENANABcpNB2bCt1
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANALfGwRj6XvX
Also, you'll probably have 3 other assignments due that week, so an extension won't help you a lot.480Please respect copyright.PENANA70Atv1c4gv
So here are my top clutch moments.
Coming from number 3:480Please respect copyright.PENANAvDsufu5fUY
Summer school assignment.480Please respect copyright.PENANAMP4K0QHe8F
It was a HARD assignment. So, of course, I left it to the last 3 hours.480Please respect copyright.PENANARofj7PCX8R
Needless to say, I pressed the submission button... 30, no, 20 seconds before it was due.480Please respect copyright.PENANAlUMpDgolpa
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAWXGK9xsNAK
480Please respect copyright.PENANASQvIWn76cd
Number 2:480Please respect copyright.PENANA5qGFfdSXpX
This JUST happened.480Please respect copyright.PENANAZCHFJFuV4R
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAAo3eWdnkQI
I submitted it the first time. Incorrect answer for both questions.480Please respect copyright.PENANAHcVX8aYzlN
Whoops, I missed some capital letters, alright.480Please respect copyright.PENANAlewY4wDOSx
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAlRqltpcHhG
480Please respect copyright.PENANApGpDHsvkRB
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAGSLevDzhVn
I tried a few things last minute to improve my work based on the lecturer's hints, but none of them worked. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAbDEwBeUmEj
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAK2kY05M01U
480Please respect copyright.PENANA4nlNaqUXEf
I submitted it. The website went down before I could see my results.480Please respect copyright.PENANAVK8EgNL4cG
What if this caused both questions to be incorrect, overwriting my last attempt?480Please respect copyright.PENANAXFYj4Eoltg
There's no way that small change could work.480Please respect copyright.PENANAZsoduJmWAk
480Please respect copyright.PENANAxp9Qbc0A6Q
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAmQ5cgadmMO
480Please respect copyright.PENANAgxKNjm7MpR
Number 1:480Please respect copyright.PENANA6W02P4DMc9
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANA2D7ukjPVj5
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAXPFlnGRcWO
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANA0xRZof5j8k
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAZfm704P1Um
I headed to google. Googled the pattern with a slight adjustment to make it more simple. Surely there was something.480Please respect copyright.PENANAqjAgCFPcF6
Scrolled down. And there it was. That one line that lead to my victory.480Please respect copyright.PENANAlhhUsjUNRG
I didn't even have time to test it more than once.480Please respect copyright.PENANAtN1Y14eqd9
480Please respect copyright.PENANAjnqM1UJW0f
Copied and pasted it, pressed play and crossed my fingers.480Please respect copyright.PENANATn95iJwHw1
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAtHWf80fTG3
The lecturer was impressed.480Please respect copyright.PENANAqGb7hYH9N7
Hey, modern problems need modern solutions. 480Please respect copyright.PENANA4DPYhWVqZk
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. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAjnAI29NgGu
Luckily, my lecturers were kind enough to lend me an extra minute. Every. Single. Time.480Please respect copyright.PENANAIYXUzF5gaf
One of the most memorable times was when I didn't hand in my online test on time.480Please respect copyright.PENANA63ecYJRo3w
I clicked submit... but it was too late. On the SECOND I clicked it, it greyed out.480Please respect copyright.PENANA4n74pbfc3j
480Please respect copyright.PENANAczTh3hPEZK
Frantically, I emailed the lecturer, and he sensed how desperate I was, so he let me email him.480Please respect copyright.PENANAiKEzYTPhQw
So I did... email him the wrong file. I mean, it was my test, but it wasn't finished.480Please respect copyright.PENANAR9drurTREs
Crap.480Please respect copyright.PENANAOxM8H2umcj
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAVJroyExCMF
Results came. Not only did he accept my late submission, but he accepted my LATE late submission. 480Please respect copyright.PENANAmPou0ivxFu
Class average for that test sucked ass... and I ended up having one of the best scores. Insane.480Please respect copyright.PENANA1ELmgqS82G
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.480Please respect copyright.PENANAtkqbJSUR4F
480Please respect copyright.PENANAOPV79UOdBV
To my employers and lecturers, if any of you happen to read this.... 480Please respect copyright.PENANA7teMP0ru2Z
Whoops.480Please respect copyright.PENANApXsVLFmBun
Don't worry Dr. Axxxxx Bxxxxx, I've never done it for the three papers I took under you!480Please respect copyright.PENANAeKfddme55X
