When you’re glancing over your notes one last time and suddenly nothing is making sense.
When your Professor opens the door and says “You can come in now”.
When the Prof asks if there’s “any questions before we get started” and someone brings up a theory you’ve never even heard of.
When you can’t decide between A and C, so you decide to just go with your first instinct.
When someone’s alarm goes off in their bag – even after the Professor reminded everyone to turn off their phones.
When you look at the very first page and already need to give yourself a pep talk – you know you can do this, breathe.
When someone gets caught cheating and is escorted out of the exam.
When a question on your exam has nothing to do with what you’ve been studying.
When you think you need to rush for time and then realize you still have an hour left.
When you’re finally finished and feel an overwhelming desire to hug your professor.
When you walk out of the room and it hits you that you’ve completed another semester.
When someone later asks you what you wrote for Question 4 and you’ve already forgotten what the exam was even on.
