I was an excellent student and tutor, but I choked on quizzes/tests. Every. Single. Time. To this day, decades later, I choke on forms (quizzes for non-students). I stare at the forms, anxiety builds, and my mind goes blank.
Fuuny... Every student has faced the same, as me and you. Bear-and-D...339bf7.gif
I often left it for the night before. Always regretted it. Always swore I'd never leave it that late again.....Always left it that late again.

As a mom it took me a second to remember that due date has other meanings than the day your baby could come.
Being a student is not only about acquiring knowledge of a specific subject, but also about developing in other ways, including emotionally, physically, philosophically, and socially. Besides all the sleepless nights and other struggles, student life is also full of positive experiences that shape our personalities and help us navigate in our future endeavors.
did it with computer science… apparently i’m now at college-level-knowledge or something
my biology teacher i swear. luckily the state test was easier than every test we've had all year so i think i passed.
The very first biology class I took at university. The instructor merely copied portions of the book into three or four-page handouts, gave them to us to study, then read them word for word during the next class. That was the entire semester.
Only when you didn't pay attention the first three times the teacher was teaching it.
Really, my teacher has like 80% of the material on the test directly from the study guide
Load More Replies...University or college life can be stressful and overwhelming for students as they navigate through plenty of academic, social, and personal challenges. That’s when humor (in the form of funny posts, jokes, or memes) comes in handy! It can offer a much-needed break from the monotony of one’s daily academic routine and provide a sense of relief and connection among students. We hope that these images are just what you need right now!
What a beautiful horse. The shiny one is okay too
That horse on the right is officially invited to join my pupper and I. We would get along really well I feel.
Load More Replies...I was at a client convention years ago, 100 managers from a big electric install company. Suddenly I hear my name announced, oh I'm going to give a talk on how psychiatric work comp claims are investigated and handled. WTH? I mean, I knew my stuff but no warning? I gave that talk. And no one could see that while I was cool from the waist up, my knees were knocking like in some old cartoon!
Anxiety always hindered, I was asked to present sitting down, since I was turning white
I'm the opposite look horrible practicing, then bam pressure on spot light on have every answer and make my peers look like neanderthals
Wife -"Yesterday you said you'll do it today" Me - "No, I said I'll do it Tomorrow"
This is me when I need to put my phone down but can't cause I'm too intrigued 😂
I'm still trying to convince myself not everything needs to be aesthetic
Lol - in Dutch, Allen means everyone. So they could just have put everybody/everyone on there and been done
Alright. Allen is now associated with "all in" in my head. So I'll remember it means everyone in Dutch. It's it pronounced the same?
Load More Replies..."Is your name not Allen?" "No, it's Smith" "That's going to cause a little confusion!" "Mind if we call you Allen to keep it clear?"
Oh No! Your last lame is ARDEN? We can't hire you. Unless you change it???? I used to drive by this building every day when I lived In Fredericksburg, VA
I live there now and I always drive past this building! I was actually joking about the meme potential of the name with a friend the other day
Load More Replies...That's a law firm around where I live. I still get a kick out of their billboards every time I see one. Why not just call themselves Allen & Co.? They have like 32 Lawyers in their firm... who cares if 4 of them are Allens?
For proper accuracy, Allen is the guy who does none of the work and takes all the credit
What makes university memes so popular is their relatability. Many people can identify with the situations depicted, having gone through similar experiences during their time as students. From procrastinating on studying for an exam until the last minute to opting for a nap instead of writing an essay, these memes resonate with all of us who have been through the university experience.
Some editors started introducing same sex couples, but they ended doing this, because their books coulnd't be sold in some countries.
In my french book, i had to read a story about a girl who cheated on her boyfriend. i always wondered why they used that story in a schoolbook meant for fourth-graders.
Load More Replies...Look carefully. These are the true colors of the American flag.
I remember one titled Snapshot and there were two main characters, an Indian girl and English boy. She rejected him and he went to Lake District with a male friend. Also, a girl from Australia wrote a letter to mother saying everything was fine in London, but on the next page there was her diary entry and she explained she lied to her mother and she struggled in a foreign country.
My elementary school one had Big Ben on it actually ☝️ totally true about American English books though
a teacher once found one of his students online during the test, so instead of talking (they were in the same room) he just sent her an email telling her her test was cancelled
Me and my friend both logged on to a group project doc the night before we presented to make final changes. As i was making some edits I got a text from him saying “fancy meeting you here” lmao
Was I the only person who felt really old when I looked up umbrella academy on IMDB and found out number 5 was one of the kids from Nicky, Ricky, Dicky, and Dawn?(nickelodeon show)
we love them both with all of our hearts! ❤ time goes by so fast these days
Load More Replies...When some YouTuber with 12 subscribers and foreign accent explains a topic
I've lost count of the amount of time some Youtuber with an Indian or Pakistani accent taught me something in 5 minutes that I'd be struggling to understand for hours up to that point. I would like to know why those two culture groups are so damn good at explaining things.
Load More Replies...Nice of you to assume my friends know anything about the subject
Nice of you to assume I have friends (edit: this is a joke, i have friends)
Load More Replies...This is so true. He'll go down one subject, and then someone will say/do something weird, and then he'll talk about that thing, and then it'll spiral
These pictures some up my experience in my High School Geometry class. We were assigned a Proof every night and class started with two students:myself and a good friend present ing our solutions..Mine was always the picture on the left in usually 30 steps. His was the picture on the right in 5.
The period of being a student can also be a very epidemiologically vulnerable time, and the significant changes that often come with attending college or university can be added stressors. According to a survey conducted in 2022 by Gallup and the Lumina Foundation, 2 out of 5 undergraduate students say they frequently experience emotional stress while attending college. It shows that the need for support is urgent, as constant stress and anxiety can lead to dropping out and/or serious mental health problems.
It’s important to prioritize your mental health, practice self-care, and seek out support when needed. Remember that taking care of your mental health is a crucial part of your overall well-being and academic success!
Remember being in elementary and liking a person in high school knowing nothing will happen. Well now that I’m in high school, it is happening to me…….and I still have huge crushes on high schoolers
I have a crush on a senior who is graduating in like 2 weeks and moving to another state for college 😞
Load More Replies...agreed, Elemenery school is normal, middle school people try to act cool and call things babyish, and highschool people don't cate and wear pj's, bring stuffies to school, or put on 50 pounds of makeup and look back. I wich highschool had playgrounds because I would go there for lunch and snack for sure
Yup. My geography teacher says she has a kindergarten class who behaves more maturely than the high school boys.
Load More Replies...I never saw them as anything but stupid children, but then again I was doing bad high school kid things at 12
It blew my mind that John Travolta was cast as an 18yo high school student in Grease when he looked like he was a 40yo. It blew my mind even more to discover he was only 23yo at the time.
i remember that episode. it gives my deja vu in my dining room because they look so similar
You have a lighted, golden staircase in your dining room? If I had that, I wouldn't in good conscience be able to stick pretzel rods in the peanut butter jar like a barbarian.
Load More Replies...did that with my homework and emailed it to the class… they now worship me >:)
That doesn't work with me.... the test questions are based on the quizlet, but the answers are different.
animating in a nutshell- like the end product can be absolute c**p but ya know I FINISHED and that's BETTER THAN YOU >:)
... And then think of ways tot turn an F into an A with your art skills
Omg I do this but with time. If i finish this chapter i can spend 10 minutes doing nothing, if i do this i can watch b99 for more time. I'm pretty much a dog and a trainer at the same time
Wait but that’s actually smart! On another note, how I motivate myself is I eat a spicy food and don’t allow myself to have water until I finish something
Should of thought of this, but I would of cheated on my studies and my diet
i used that word in my short answer response today for american history state testing...
It’s been about 12-13 years since I laid down “Thusly” in a paper and I got a big slap for that one. Professor let me know it was terrible. Was married to a dude who was an MD and went to an Ivy. Since he was slightly older, I copied him thinking he sounded smart and he still says this damn word.
My list looks a bit different: Day 1: I have tomorrow. Day 2: I have tomorrow. Day 3: I have tomorrow. Day 4: I have tomorrow. Day 5: You know what? F***k this what is science gonna do for me anyways.
Every college student which is why professors will add info on day 3 or 4 and not apologize
I could bang out a ten page essay in 45 minutes. And my roommates paid well for this service.
“YOU SAID YOU WOULD WORK WITH ME YOU TRAITOR” “so jessica and i are going to be watching cocomelon all weekend anyone wanna join us?”
It's worse when they place it right in the middle of the screen and leave it there for the entire movie
Load More Replies...I was a high school teacher. I always made sure to get the mouse off the bottom bar. I hope there was at least one kid who appreciated that.
I legit read this and then looked at the board where the mouse was on the pause button
so many times i wanted to say, "hover your finger over the K key" but couldn't because thats basically them t posing during videos. they gotta assert them dominance
and when press the pause button. and when they leave the cursor on the subtitles/ or somewhere on the video time thingy. and when the press the exit full screen button. use K/space, put the mouse on the side, and press f or esc. (Sorry, tech nerding out on keyboard shorcuts)
I always lay down on the floor because “I can’t possibly fall asleep on the floor”…yeah. I can.
A great nap trick when you MUST have a nap but have no actual time, is to go to sleep in a chair (not too comfortable) holding a spoon over a hard floor. I've found the amount of sleep you get from when you drop the spoon until it hits the floor is usually enough to get two more hours of wake time. But, it's only repeatable one or two times tops.
Load More Replies...Drink some caffeine then take a nap. I think it takes like 20min to kick in or something, so you take a 20min nap and the caffeine wakes you back up and you feel awake and refreshed
very accurate for me, except mine are all golden retrievers and sheep dogs wearing all cowboy stuff
Wait, three braincells? I only have a 0.1229th of a braincell, and I haven't done my midterms
this happened to me tonight. it still feels glorious! (47, working in finance)
The truly glorious part is when you wake up, be fully convinced you've overslept, get up in a panic, start getting dressed... and then suddenly wonder "Wait, why is so dark outside?", look at the clock, and see it's 03:00. AAAARRRGHHHH!
Load More Replies...Do I get up to pee or is it too close to wake up time to bother....clock says 2:30am. Most glorious feeling ever!!
Drinking a lot of water right before you go to bed helps with this
Best feeling! Same as waking up early and remembering it's your day off
An Anglophone speaks english and a Francophone speaks french --- I'm guessing a Microphone speaks... micronesian?
Load More Replies...i am laughing right now, this is very like how I would text friends. I am silly with them
we should have a professional way of saying "i have no idea where this idea came from, but i know i heard it somewhere"
“While the source has been lost, scholars confirm it was in fact true.”
Load More Replies...My 2nd grade teacher yelled at me for sourcing "my brain" (literally, I wrote that) bc i didn't remember where I'd learned it.
Who the hell want someone from grade two to source s**t. You should be happy if they can write most letters frontward.
Load More Replies...But some of us DO have those dreams, that come up with the answer to something we have been trying to figure out. Unfortunately the dream does not reveal how we found out.
To be fair, and your can look this up on Google if you are interested in the details, this particular footnote was for something that nobody would expect a proper source for anyway. Sort of like if I said in a paper that I preferred cookies to cake and provided this footnote for that assertion.
Good thing I got mine in person... only had to sit under the blazing sun for a few hours (fully clad in black robes), listening to boring speeches :D
Hmmm. Every graduation experience I have had is to receive a blank diploma holder. You don't get the actual diploma until all grades are processed.
Load More Replies...USPS requirements for a mail piece to qualify as a large envelope instead of a more expensive parcel is that a first class large envelope has to be bendable. Writing “do not bend” on a first class large envelope is not a valid request that a postal worker has to follow even tho many will try.
I had to go to the university and wait for them to "make it" freaking print job.
oh dear, i slipped and turned the TV on. oh no, The Imitation Game is on. looks like i’ll have to watch it 🤷🏻♀️
Woahhhh! I guess that’s gods calling for me to watch Netflix!
nah, you gotta put the meme to download-1...0c4d8.jpeg
I took a course in learning styles to find out that I don't learn anything in a class if I spend the whole time "taking notes". I do better if I just make a list of key words and concepts that I need to remember.
that's why it took me 2 hours to finish an english exam because i was instead making a fake advertisement on my scratch paper
The freshman who graduated during the pandemic is the fire
An entire grade of HS didn't take their IGCSE tests bc of the pandemic. Not sure how.
Load More Replies...“during the war…” (this a reference to Only Fools and Horses ok)
Depends on the method of instruction. I've had (only two of many) classes that were basically an interactive zoom call with the instructor each week. Those were really valuable to me
Load More Replies...shoutout to all them people on youtube who explain the same subject using smaller words for my curdled brain to understand 🙂
My high school looked at my grades before virtual school instead of my current ones to decide if they wanted to accept me or not, I am very grateful :)
Nope. I'm the smart one that ends up doing the whole thing cause everyone else is just messing around
I’m reading this while drinking coffee and stressing about my exam
Or when you have your hand up but stare into the distance and don’t listen when they call you
Happens all the damn time. I just stare into space and zone out for the next one hour unless the teacher calls on me
Procrastinating by gaming throughout the night instead of studying... and then still nailing the exam while in a zombie-like semi-asleep state :D
That's what i do! Heck that's what i'm doing rn! I have an exam due in a couple of hours, but i'm just chilling on BP!
fwiw in the long run its inconsequential. they make it seem like it sets the tone for the rest of your life when in reality it only sets the tone for your early 20s. by the time you are 30 you will barely remember your roommates name and most likely be in a field that has nothing to do with your degree.
Unless your degree is law or medical. Then you'll still be in school
Load More Replies...and then you end up with a 35-line paragraph where 60% of it doesn't make sense, but 40% does ; )
i once submitted an assignment that was due in 2 seconds
I submitted my first semester final essay the minute it was due
i heard stories of people submiting their eagle scout paper at 11:45 ish before their 18th birthday so they still submitted it before they were 18. that sounds way to stressful.
We're not allowed to have our phones in our classrooms at my school. Or anywhere else except our locker.
same. Allowed to have laptops and iPads with keyboards tho... kinda defeats the purpose
Load More Replies...or the teacher filling up the board during the break, thus we stressing to write everything down to before he starts do erase. ashole... :P
That's nothing - I had a course where we had 1 whole book to read every single week, until the end of the semester. Of course, we also had to write detailed assignments based on the books, so skipping the reading was not an option. Bonus: some of the books were pretty traumatizing (war-related topics, with plenty of "mass unaliving").
Always create the document when you get the assignment so it doesn't say "created today" when you submit it
Anyone else used to write profuse apologies at the end of their exam papers?
This is similar to what people on the streets handing out flyers intend. "Here. You throw this away."
it works until a south corean guy gets hungry
Load More Replies...This is how I felt once in college. Animation. Fridays used to be reviewing students' work days on the projector. This one time, everyone seemed to do just average, or the lecturer was not in a good mood. The work just before mine got criticized to hell. I thought, well, this is it, I'm just going to walk out before they watch my work. Surprisingly when they watched mine, the lecturer said: "See, this is how you're supposed to do it!". I felt kind of confused. But happy.
Why would a teacher feel the need to shout because a kid didn't do their homework?
I once got a 16/20 after studying in the morning prior to the test
I should use this (when I want to get thrown out a window)
Load More Replies...Why is the batmobile in this? I'd forgotten they did anything like that!
It's from Scooby Doo and Guess Who I think. It has a different celebrity in every episode :) It's not a great show, though :/
Load More Replies...It felt weird to go to work at school on the day when Russia attacked Ukraine. I didn't want to tell my pupils anything, but they screamed at me: war! It stopped being exciting for them when war refugees arrived and they could see firsthand how traumatised the kids were. Also, teachers my age haven't learnt Russian, so dealing with little Ukrainians has been complicated.
i’m so sorry to correct you, but Ukrainians have their own language! It’s quite different from Russian, and as a native Russian speaker I can only understand roughly 30% of what a Ukrainian speaker says to me. But I was still in the Motherland when the war started and i felt nothing but fear about how it would unfold, and i still had to attend school. Again, so sorry for correcting you; and thanks for sharing!
Load More Replies...It was weird for me the other day when I’m nervous about doing my math homework while were on lockdown because some guy is shooting up a hospital 2 and 1/2 miles away and I’m not sure if my dad is alive (he is just fyi he was working at a different hospital that day but idk his Schedule
I just did this today! I was presenting a speech in class, but some kids started throwing mini paper airplanes, so I had to pause mid-speech so that the teacher could tell them off, and I felt exactly like this…
Do not feel like this. You are important! People should be quieting down to listen to you. What you have to say matters!
Step on a rake, it's a fun challenge. Make a video.
Load More Replies...I have seen this meme several times. Will someone please tell me the true story behind it?
My first year in the dorms was the first year they had internet!
Load More Replies...They made us do coding in 3rd grade. Like wtf!? It made no sense
Load More Replies...Remember, kids, Junior year is when the depression really starts to cut deep ;)
Starts!?!!? I’ve been depressed since 8th grade if it gets deeper we might need another therapist
Load More Replies...Honestly, at my school it's the opposite. The upperclassmen always get first treatment and us freshmen are looked down upon.
When it comes to class selection, it makes sense, since upperclassmen have less time left than freshmen (that's how it worked at my college).
Load More Replies...Yes, definitely an ain'tn't aresn't the won'tn't. Copernicus once said, and I quote, "Nope!"
Load More Replies...my name doesn’t even have an a in it when you spell it in cyrillic
Middle school I got up at 5:45 without problem, now I can barely get up at 10
The school says they will renovate my ancient middle school soon. They have been saying that for 10 years and so far they have done *looks a school in disgust* nothing
This post reminded me I have a test tomorrow and didn't even prepare. wish me luck guys.
I have a really important exam today and more these upcoming weeks so these are all very much me!
good luck lol, just got done with my 3rd of 4 exams today

I've got an AP US history test this Friday. I've been binge watching Crash Course US history, so hopefully I'll pass. Wish me luck!
I still have nightmares about exams I haven't revised for or being asked to hand in assessment work (I've not done) years after as an adult... ***shudder***
One day on Online class, my teacher asked why I wasn't smiling. I wanted to say that I don't want to live right now, I decided to say that I was tired to avoid talking anymore that I had to.
