just kidding. I'm taking it in August.

After the exam I hope you are all able to sleep well and put it behind you until the scores come out.
 
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: well that was a relief. I was wondering how anyone actually sleeps before the exam let alone over sleeps.

Oh god, I was actually thinking you had. That would be terrible.

I am so anal...the night before the MCAT I set 3 different alarm clocks...just in case.

I set four. One was battery powered, two built into radio/alarm-clocks, and one on my cell phone.

--- my OCD is a *disease*. 🙄

HAHAHA........The funny thing is a friend of mine did oversleep and woke up at 8:15 and got there in 4 minutes flat at 8:19. Luckily she was just on time. That would have sucked had she missed it. :laugh:
 
actually a guy in my section came about 15 minutes late, like 5 minutes before physics started and they did not allow him to take it. I felt so bad for him...

I couldn't sleep at all.... now I'm also 😴 .
I actually stayed up all night long, what a wonderful way to prepare for the biggest freeeeking day of my life. Actually, its not the biggest!!! I read frankenstein for 1 hour or so, ate some food at 3, meditated for 30 min stared at the ceiling for 2 hours, and then took the test!!!. I stuck to my guns though and hope that all was the best!!!!!!!!!
Now I have a severe headache trying to study for finals!!!!!!!!!
 
Same here, man. Actually four. I have an alarm that has two timer settings. I also set the timer on my stereo, which cranks up the volume until you turn it off. I also schedule it in my cell phone so it rings at the preset time. All set approximately 5 minutes after the other that way if I turn off one unknowingly, happens a lot, I have backups. Ridiculous, I know.

Wierd thing that happen to me when I stay up late is that for some reason I turn off the alarm, without fail, some time during the night. First time it happened it freaked me out. I thought someone managed to unlock my door and enter my room to turn it off or other freaky thing...stems from too much horror movies. 🙂

I think I had set two different alarms, one on my alarm clock and one on my cell phone. But I woke up on my own and heard the alarm clocks go off when I was already in the shower.

Now that the test is over, I'm sleeping just fine. I think I logged 11 hours last night. 😀 And even though I didn't drink in celebration, I think I have an ice cream hangover. uggghhhhh.

I set one clock, and I actually woke up 5 minutes before it. Weird.
yea that happens to me all the time. For me, it's usually when it's an important day and waking up late or snoozing isn't an option.

i guess she went in her pj's without a shower or eating or peeing...what a way to sit thru an exam...and the testing center must have been really close; she was darn lucky

ouch!! wow does that suck
 
well..... i almost missed it....
there was a problem in the subway so i had to wait around 20 mins inside the train .... when i got out it was 8:10.... i literally blanked out.... and kept running in the wrong direction away from the test center.....
but fortunately i realized it.... and got there a couple of mins before the test started....
man... that was an experience....
 
I actually had a dream the night before the night prior to the MCATs. It went like this: I overslept and I couldn't find my admission ticket but eventually I made it to the center and I woke up right when I opened up the first booklet of the test. When I woke up, I realized I had to sleep by 8pm that night...
