HELP! please......

Post by pipigrande »

IM SUCH A ..... IDIOT. I just overslept and missed my final exam. **** :banghead: . I studied all night and was supposed to take a 2hours nap... but ****...

Now, I need an excuse for my proffesor. Anyone could please please give me a good excuse, without anyone dying?.. I'm planning to tell my prof an excuse and the fact that I'm getting a B+ in the class, so he would let me write the final exam tomorrow.

any serious good excuse? please....... man, I'm so worried.. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

You accidentally ran over a dog or your own dog in your driveway?

And no, that's not a supposed to be smartassness or funny because as much as dogs/my dog annoys me, I'd certainly put her safety/life before some test no matter how important.

How much did you oversleep? If you can catch your professor asap and tell them what happened, maybe(that's a big maybe) they will let you take it. Good luck.

Lesson learned, if you try to pull an all nighter, don't take a "nap". Just stay up, the test anxiety will keep you awake. Or have a friend stay awake to wake you up.

Tell him the truth, that you studied all night and overslept from a 2 hr nap, maybe he can laugh about it and give you another chance.

If you lie and he feels it as suspicous he probably will be harsher on you.

say you got in a car accident.
if he asks for papers, you can go to a local tow truck company, ask the front desk person for a yellow slip and he'll give you one cause theyre not allowed to charge you for it.

So, I just got back from school. I didn't have the guts to lie. So, I told him the truth. At first he was giving me a hard time but at the end he said I could do the exam next week PLUS some extra work (assignment). Pff... lucky me, now I got even more time to study! :)

thanks guys. I can't believe most of you said 'tell the truth'. I'm quite surprised :shock: (no offense :twisted: )

this was all a plot against you. over years of monitoring your posts, we concocted a scenario that would surely draw out your true colors. The trap was laid perfectly and like a fool you fell right in. You have no one to blame but yourself.

What would be more epic is if his professor had a srf account and reads this topic. LOL

But yeah, tell him the truth and he might give you a second chance. Take in consideration that your maybe is a really slim chance. Up to you really. :P

Always tell them you got a psychiatrist + excuse. The psychiatrist softens them up, hehe.

This.

A power nap is one thing, but in my experience, those usually work best if you only nap for 15-30 minutes. If you nap for much longer, you'll end up going into REM sleep and waking up possibly more exhausted than before if you don't actually stay in REM sleep "long enough". I'd say just stay up, although I know.... too late.

It's probably best to just come clean and tell the truth. Any lie you make up could come back to bite you later. Depending on your professor, he may appreciate your honesty.
