As you ghost through the halls of Fondren and build yourself a small hut of snacks and notebooks in a study room this finals period, diffuse some of that exam tension with some fun songs that will commiserate with you. And remember, summer is just beyond that 10-page paper!

1. Bad Things with Jamaicans – Charley Marley

For when you really should be studying. It's been ages since you slept outside of Fondren. Your world is blurring into a psychedelic jumble of notes.

2. Perfect Tense – Fallulah

For when you go out with your friends to procrastinate studying. Might not be too bad if you just end up winging it, right? You'll be fine. It will all soon be buried in your past...

3. Beware the Dog – The Griswolds

For when you’re surrounded by textbooks and power points, remembering the short, happy life of Syllabus Week. Where did the time go?

4. Smaller – Erik Hassle

For when you feel like finals are actually decimating your ability to function. Has anyone investigated a possible connection between final exams stress and brain cell death?

5. Carry Your Throne – Jon Bellion

For when, like a rallying cry for the broken, a study break comes along to pull you out of the muck and take up your side in the fight for your sanity.

6. Rivers – Thomas Jack

For when you just need to dance a jig and forget it all. Maybe you need a friend or two to dance with you.

7. Wake Up – Aaradhna

For when you — OK, seriously now — really need to get up and do some studying.

8. Rock Bottom – Hailee Steinfeld

What even is your relationship with your major anyway?

9. NoLo – Grace Mitchell

For the night before the exam when you're pretty sure you've lost it, because you feel way too confident about this.

10. Beggin’ – Madcon

For that moment right before the exam when you’re just reeeeaaallly hoping to pass.

11. Bones – MS MR

For those moments of panic, when you’re sure they’ll find your bones scattered in Herzstein Amp after the exam.

12. How You Like Me Now? – The Heavy

And one more song for that moment when you’ve finished your last final and you’re free, free, free.
