All nighters are fun.
All that fatigue that's put on you may decrease your work's quality but it cuts down procrastination by heaps.

I'd rather get plenty of sleep and study right before the exam.
All nighters are much less beneficial than a full night's sleep. Memory retention does a ton better when you have a full 8 hours of sleep at night.

Aaaaaaand that's why you pull all nighters. Slept through class so you didn't learn anything.
I'm not kidding. There have been actual studies that show a lack of sleep contributes to lower grades. All nighters especially.

Five college students were subjects in one of Walker's studies, and they had been awake for more than 24 hours. He has found that students like these do 40 percent worse memorizing lists of words after a night without sleep. But he has discovered something far more revolutionary about what happens when we do sleep.
"Sleep, we've been finding, actually can enhance your memories, so that you'll come back the next day even better than where you were the day before," Walker tells Stahl.
To prove it, Walker put Stahl through a test he's given to more than 400 study subjects. Stahl had to type a series of numbers - 4, 1, 3, 2, 4 - over and over again with her left hand, making a new physical memory.
Some of Walker's subjects learned this sequence in the morning, then were tested 12 hours later to see how well they had learned. Their performance remained essentially the same. But others learned it late in the day, then were re-tested after a night of sleep. Their performance, as well as Stahl's, actually improved by at least 20 to 30 percent.
"So, it seems to be that practice does not quite make perfect; it’s practice with a night of sleep that makes perfect," Walker says. "It's this odd notion that we all think in Western civilization that we have to stay awake to get more done. And I think that's simply not true. In fact, I think if you have a good night of sleep, what you'll find is that you can get more done than if you simply stay awake."

I guess that makes me a scientific marvel then.
I actually retained knowledge better when sleeping through classes. I would always get 100s on the tests even if I didn't know prior to the class it was taught in; when asked the question, I would just... know. I never studied either.
Whereas if I did study and I did sleep beforehand so I wouldn't sleep through class, I usually got around A- scores.

This is what the modern day people call Gifted, if what you say is true. I wish i had that.

Eh, you don't need 8 full hours of sleep anyways.
REM sleep is the essential sleep when it comes to memory retention and you only really need 2 hours of that, but you don't have much control over that. It's more important to have a a rigid sleeping schedule than plain hours of sleep from my experience.
I'm an IB student if that means anything since having "all nighters" to finish homework are not all that uncommon for students in that program.

Well 8 hours of sleep usually includes 2 hours of REM sleep. It takes a while for the brain to enter REM sleep stage, so the more sleep you can get, the better.

Well I pulled a couple of all nighters. I went to science class and my eyes just wouldnt stay open, and I tried everything!
My friend said for the entire 1 1/2 period I was there half asleep (I unfortunatly have a front row seat) in front of the teacher, bobbing and swaying back and forth.
The day feels like 3 days.
Although, I think that its BETTER to pull an all nighter than to go to sleep for 1 hour or so. Waking up is a hastle.

My current record for maximum awake time is 110 hours, 43 minutes, 17 seconds. During my two-week winter break.
But yeah allnighters suck on schoolweeks. If I'm not done with my homework before 10 pm I just hit the sack and pick it up again at 7 the next morning or during class... my teachers like me so turning in one assignment late isn't an issue.
oh and I never study, yay for eidetic memory

Yeah I Know What You Mean. When Red Bull First Came Out I Drank A Lot Of Them. I Still Remember Stacking The Bottle Caps Into Pyramids.
Till This Day I still am haunted with side effects of drinking so many energy drinks:afraid:
(Except for the fact alot of teachers envy my energy levels:hihihi:)
