7 Signs it’s Midterm Season

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BC chapter.

With Thanksgiving Break over a month away and Columbus Day Weekend behind us, these seemingly endless weeks can only mean one thing: it’s midterm season. Professors are handing out review guides left and right and students flock to the library in hopes of earning high marks. Here are seven tell-tale signs that midterm season is in full swing.

1. The line at Starbucks and The Chocolate Bar is ten times longer than it usually is because, well, coffee.

2. There isn’t an empty seat in Bapst, O’Neil, or even the lounge on your floor, so you are forced to get creative when finding somewhere to study.

3. In looking at your planner, you find that you have more to do in one week than all semester.

4. You haven’t seen your roommates or boyfriend in two full days because you haven’t left the library. Apparently they’ve been crazy busy too, but who knows!

5. Your group project group chat is more active than your friend group group chat.

6. Grout-fits are your go-to look for class.

7. Snacking becomes all you do because stress eating solves everything. (Right?!)

Don’t get bogged down with it all though; the end is in sight and Thanksgiving Break (and Mom’s homemade meals) will be here before we know it!
