We have arrived at the part of the semester when students are tirelessly dealing with midterms, papers, and group projects. Amidst all this chaos, the Registrar’s Office somehow manages to schedule final exams right under our noses.

In honor of final exam schedules being released, Onward State is once again looking for the most unforgiving, stressful, and absolute worst exam schedule any student may be worrying about right now (we’ve gotten some real winners in the past, if you want to see the types of finals schedules you’ll be up against). If you feel your schedule fits the criteria, then send a screenshot of your final exam schedule to jondeasy@onwardstate.com along with your name, major, and graduation year.

If you plan to conquer your final exams and make it out alive, then let us know your study methods, habits, or rituals that work best for you. We’re looking forward to receiving your submissions (and laughing at your pain)!
