What's the most hardcore cramming session you've ever done? How many hours did you study without a break? (Snacks, washroom breaks excluded).

I did nothing in my Intermediate Accounting course all year, and 3 days before the final I realized I was fucked if I didn't cram like a mofo. So out of the 72 hours I had before the final, it came down to something like:

30 hours of studying, 2 hours nap time, 20 more hours studying, 2 hours nap time, 20 more hours studying. I went through a few frozen pizzas and a dozen or so energy drinks, and in the end I felt pretty confident after the final. I slept for 20+ hours after my final, I just passed out on my bed for a day.

Anyway, how long was the most hardcore cramming session you've ever done in your life?

I'm usually never totally completely fucked. So usually I just 6-10 hours per final to build up confidence.
Multiply your efforts.

Studying whats that? To be honest though, I usually spend 1-2 hours in the quiet study in the library. Since I can never get into it, I can never do it at home.. I'll probably end up watching SC or go on TL.

Same, breaks all the time! I have a Psychology exam and I moderately keep up throughout the year, but do most of my studying the night or two before. I've always done it this way and it works out fine. Longest session was fourteen hours but that's because I fucked up huge.

I used to cram about 10 hours for chem tests. Fuck I am happy I got through 6 semesters of that shit.

I cram 2-4 hours about 3 days a week for tests now. So many tests it's basically nothing but cramming. Busy year :[

My longest cramming session was 12 hours the night before my stats final. I didnt go to about 1/3 of the classes and was completely unfamiliar with a lot of the material but I managed to learn enough in time.
That isnt my longest school session though. About a week before my stats exam I had to finish a CS project with my group. We worked 30 hours straight only breaking to eat and piss.

yes, CS projects are the worst. Spent 40 hours over the course of 2 1/2 days a few weeks ago to write a network app for my computer networks class
