hi everyone. . .what happens if you oversleep on the wards??
i'm a second year with a big oversleeping problem.
recently, i overslept for a test.
i had to meet with the dean about this and she made me very concerned about my prospects next year.
how can i keep from oversleeping? will they kick me out if i do?
should i try taking a stimulant before bed to make my sleep lighter? (red bull, coffee, etc) i am a VERY heavy sleeper. i used to wet the bed well into childhood (i know, embarrasing!!) because i couldn't wake up.
i was late for high school almost every day because my mom could not wake me up in time at that age.
i overslept through countless exams in college, and i have come into many others in medschool with only half the time remaining.
now, i have actually missed a whole test with not a real prospect to make it up.
am i going to be able to hear my beeper? get to rounds? etc?
what to do, what to do?
advice??
