I have faith that you can survive the all-nighter and multivariable calculus. But I want you to know that you can survive and thrive even if you were to fall asleep in the midst of the all-nighter and miss the exam completely. And after this exam is over – and you’ve had some sleep – maybe contact the Connors Family Learning Center (bit.ly/BC-connors) for some academic coaching, so it doesn’t come down to all-nighters next time?
I see you, all tired and bleary-eyed, but still smiling. May all your study yield much learning and success.
It’s not a great idea, either for health or for academic success. Better to pace yourself. If all fails, there’s always caffeine, breaks to exercise, and getting a partner to help each other stay committed to the task and to stay awake. Then go see the CFLC (bit.ly/BC-connors) for academic coaching, so it doesn’t have to happen again.
