Not a student now but was one not long ago

I've taken an exam on 2 hours sleep before - don't do it. It's a terrible idea. Especially if the hours you spent before sleeping were spent running your brain in hyperdrive trying to cram. You will enter the exam and your brain will be like goop - you will think you are making sense, but in fact you are not. On that exam I scored the lowest mark I've scored on any exam that I've ever taken in my life and I actually thought it went okay. You may have a better result if it's multiple choice to be fair but if you are writing, don't do it.

That said, I don't like "over-relaxing" the day before either but you still want your 8 hours for sure. 6 at least.
