It's been years since I remember having one of those "The final exam is today, but I never went to class or read the textbook!" nightmares (or that evil variant, the "I made it to the exam, but forgot to put on pants!" dream).
Last night brought a new variant: I needed two particular classes to graduate, but they were on opposite ends of a large campus, with not enough time to make it from one classroom to the other, and a professor who was very uncompromising about getting to class on time. No matter how fast I ran, or biked, or had a friend drive me (getting lost along the way, of course), I couldn't get to the second class on time. The prof was getting more and more annoyed, and was on the verge of failing me when I woke up.
I think my subsconcious is trying to tell me something, and it probably has to do with being overscheduled. Bah.
But then again I still get the nightmare from grade school when I show up to class in my pajamas! Imagine my horror when my wife (grade school teacher) tells me they now have "pajama" days in schools!

It'll pass in another decade or so.
