I was supposed to have an important part-exam today, that counts 25% of the overall "score" of the course.

I didn't go.

The reason ? I thought it was tomorrow.

Morale of the story: Always double-check exam dates.

(Sorry, I just had to share this with someone, and DROD.net was closest)

Ouch. I once had a roommate who came up to me one day and told me "I just looked through a syllabus for one of my classes... I had a midterm two weeks ago that I didn't know about."

He hadn't been to class in a good month or so, as he was horribly addicted to chatting with girls online. Don't-leave-the-computer-except-to-eat-and-go-to-the-bathroom-for-days kind of addicted.

Obviously not the same as your dilemma, but hey - it could be worse. I hope your prof goes easy on you and lets you make it up or something...

:(

I did that once... Fortunately, the test in question had two dates, and I was planning to take the earlier one, so I just went to the later one - but that was a really aggravating morning (and the later date was far less convenient to me).
