Do I still have time to cram for 2 exams I have tomorrow (in 15hours exactly) or should I not go and pretend I was sick?

Exams are pure theory learning/memorization:
> 1 exam in plant physiology
For which I basically have 2 big chapters left to learn: 1 in plant nutrition, 1 in plant growth
> 1 multiple choice test in Geographic information systems theory
Which covers the material for the whole semester but I'm already somewhat familiar with it, just have to review it again

What do you think? Is it feasable?

Faking being sick in college doesn't work, just cram

you should not go and pretend you were sick

cramming is bad for your, always value your health over your grades

I already did it once in my freshman year and it worked out, went to the doctor the same day and pretended I was sick (stomach pains) and he gave me a certificate I was not able to go to school on this day
Maybe I was just lucky

Shameless bump

>> No.8835092

go to 1 and pretend you were sick for the other. choose the professor who is easier to bullshit to to skip.

>>8834824
if you have proper doctors or hospital notes it does. OP could just take 1 exam and after that go to the doctor and ask him to write some bullshit note. My Uni even allows deaths of family or friends as an excuse as long as you bring an obituary in. I could just clip some shit in the newspaper and pretend I know the person.

Wouldn't that be suspicious to go to one but not the other?

I just called the morning exam teacher (plant physiology) and he said it's fine with him as long as I get a note from the doctor
The one in the afternoon/evening I think would be less permissive so that should probably be the one I'd go to. I'll just say I felt better in the evening and felt like I could come for this one

Do your professors talk to each other? I doubt they chit chat about some autistic kid in their class when they do, if they ever communicate.

I doubt they do but I was rather thinking about the administration who's gonna deal with my absence. Maybe they'll think it's weird I still went to one of my exams even though the doctor's note says I couldn't go school that day. I'll just say I felt better if they ask
Cause like other anons advised, skipping only 1 and going to the other would be best so I don't have to retake both

Manage your time better. Take the exams, accept the grade and use it as motivation to improve your study habits. You're going to spend your life looking for easy outs if you don't.

Well thankfully I found a way out this time but yeah you're 100% right I have to improve on the way I organise my life, procrastination is a bitch

I'll read "How to be a straight A student" next month, maybe it'll help me with my study habits

Fuck off Cal, you have a GAY name.
tl;dr of the book: devote some time every day solely to studying, no smartphone, music, etc...
Who could have guessed.

That's bad advice. OP shouldn't sacrifice two course grades so he can learn some lesson that doesn't even apply to the real world. extensions happen. If you don't know something you don't know something.
