Exactly. Sleeping right after the test fixes everything. I'll be sleeping from 3:30 to midnight and then i'll pull another all nighter. Horrible and vicious cycle


All nighters aren't that bad. Sleeping for 1 and a half is a great way to get through it to. I think that is one rem cycle so that is good. I've also heard other increments of rem cycles so... Also 20 minute naps work well because you don't get into your rem by then. By waking up in the middle of rem, you wake up tired. But rem is the most important part of sleep. I guess 3 30 minute naps aren't as good as 1 hour and a half nap.
