It's such a shame that midterms always seem to fall during one of the most wonderful months of the year. But to lighten the mood, here's a complete timeline of midterms told by the best October movie that ever graced our screens: Hocus Pocus.

1. When you're sure people are worried for no reason.

It really can't be that bad...right?

2. But then you check your syllabus and it's only a week away.

There goes any concept of fun.

3. And you realize every day is going to be devoted to studying.

Here we go again.

4. So you open your textbook for the first time this semester.

Looks like it's time to get down to business.

5. When you realize you don't understand anything.

Time to kick this studying into high-gear.

6. But someone inevitably tries to interrupt your studying.

Do I look like I have time for you?

7. And your friend who only has one midterm just doesn't get why you're so stressed.

Shut up, Mary.

8. But you reassure her that you're fine.

But you seriously don't have time for her nonsense.

9. When you decide to study with your friends.

And realize they're just as screwed as you are.

10. So you all go to the smartest person in the class.

And hope that you absorb her knowledge.

11. When people wish you good luck on the exam.

Don't remind me!

12. When you talk to the teacher before the exam to make them like you.

You wouldn't fail someone as lovely as me, would you?

13. When you know some of the answers on the exam.

I'm a genius!

14. When exam week is over and you have no work to do.

Or at least, you're going to pretend you don't.

15. When anyone asks how exams went.

You survived. That's all that matters.
