Exams: We dislike them. They're not fun, they take up our time, and they don't honestly test our knowledge, mostly our memorization skills. We all get extremely stressed before, during, and after taking our exams. Here are 38 thoughts we all share while taking an exam:

1. I'm so ready for this. I studied as much as I could. I've got this! I'm definitely more prepared than last time. Or do I have this? *Anxiety*

2. I should have studied more. Maybe I should have started studying a week earlier rather than two days beforehand.

3. What time is it? How long do I have until I have to be done by? What if I don't finish in time?

4. Maybe I can get a C.

5. What percentage are the exams worth in this class?

6. Oh, it's worth 50 percent of my overall grade. Oh, this is not good.

7. What if I run out of pencil lead?

8. What if my pens run out of ink?

9. I don't know the answer at all. Should I go with C? C's a good bet, right?

10. Wait. Maybe it's E. What's up with "all of the above"? There's also "none of the above." What do I do?!

11. How many more exams do we have left before the final? I'll just study more for the next one. It's fine.

12. I am blanking on this question.

13. I don't know this one at all. How many did I not know? As long as it's less than 10, I should be OK.

14. I have spent 10 minutes on one question.

15. There are multiple answers to this.

16. How do I choose between these two possible answers?

17. Focus, focus, focus.

18. Just think of celebrating after this.

19. I can't think.

20. My brain is fried.

21. I'm going to cry.

22. I forgot about this chapter!

23. I'll just keep writing, something is bound to be somewhat right.

24. Am I one of the last people?

25. My hands are sweating.

26. I'm sweating.

27. Everywhere.

28. This is terrible, I'm dying.

29. Did we even learn this?!

30. This looks nothing like the study guide.

31. I swear my professor is doing this out of pure entertainment to see all of our panicked reactions.

32. Time's up? They can't stop me from filling out this answer.

33. I hate this class.

34. I really hate this class.

35. That was bad.

36. Actually, no, that wasn't bad. I bet I did pretty well.

37. Knock on wood.

38. OK, that was awful and I will admit it.

No one leaves an exam feeling on top of the world -- well, at least not us. Maybe we will do better next time, or go through all 38 of these again.
