Midterms are a very stressful time for any college student. It calls for late night study sessions, lots of coffee, and minimal interaction with the outside world. In the time that I was not studying, I was watching Grey's Anatomy and avoiding school at all costs. While binging, I came to find that there are some moments in the show that perfectly describe the thought process one has while studying and taking their midterm exams.
1. First, you sit down with all your text books and try to figure out where to begin studying. Between the 5 classes you're taking this semester, you don't know which one to prioritize or where to begin reviewing within the content.
2. Once you find yourself fully consumed with going to class, going to work, forgetting to eat dinner, and going back to your room to study for the rest of the night, you have no time to see your friends or have a social life.
3. You then come to terms with not having a social life and begin to go over the endless notes you took from readings and lectures. But it seems that no matter how many times you read and re-read the content, nothing makes sense. No sense at all.
4. You then start to question your professors. Do they even want you to pass? Are they out to get you?
5. After forgetting to sleep, or getting very few hours, you find yourself relating to the characters on The Walking Dead because you feel like an actual zombie.
6. Once your exam dates get closer, you start freaking out and tell yourself there's not enough hours in the day to study while going to the exam review sessions and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
7. You then reach the peak of your mental breakdown.
8. But then you calm down and tell yourself to snap out of it because you're freaking awesome.
9. Once test day arrives, you walk into that lecture hall with all the confidence in the world because you know you did everything in your power to prepare yourself for what is about to come.
10. But then you see the first question on the multiple choice section.
11. After that, you walk out thinking you completely bombed it.
12. But then you remind yourself that it's just one test grade and that that grade won't determine the rest of your life. One midterm exam grade will not affect where you end up or how successful you'll be.
