yep, all the time. Possibly impending business school doesn't help, either.

I still have a recurring dream about transferred credits and required courses not working out right and me not being able to graduate. It's so stressful it usually causes me to wake up all achey and tense.

It's something that never happened (or even got close to happening) and I graduated from college in 96.

yeah, i used to have those dreams. one of them took place on the top floor of a library with a spiral staircase circling to the ground floor. if that wasn't obvious enough then, it sure is now.

Still happens and I have been out of school for 5 years now, and its really weird b/c I am a good test taker who never really bothered with studying and shit.

What usually happens to me is it is a class I didn't even know I was registered for, and then I have to ace the test to graduate.

friggin all the time - but even more often, I have a dream that I show up to school and don't have a schedule, the office can't help me, so I don't even know what classes I have or where the are. The appearance and layout of the school is the same every time - there are a lot of oak trees around the outside of the school with no leaves, the sky is orange, there are railroad tracks right outside the school grounds. The office is on the left as you come in the door with stairs going up the right...a door to a theater is under the stairs. kind of creepy.

This happens to me a LOT. Big campus, multiple buildings, no clue where classes are. Or the one where I get sent back to highschool because it's been discovered that I failed/missed something. Yuck.

you people are nuts. I've never had any sort of work/school related dream where i was late or unprepared at all. or maybe i just don't stress out about anything. or maybe i'm just a hack who's used to making shit up on the fly.

Hey, some nights you get the ability to fly. Some nights you revisit highschool. It's a crapshoot.

i've had similarly. i was sitting in a class that i thought i'd dropped and, hence, obviously hadn't been going to. and then i had to ace the final.

I always have strange dreams but last night I must've been dreaming something pretty strange because I woke up last night and saw josh walking into the room towards bed and asked him "where the hell did you go??" in a rather freaked out way. He explained he was just coming to bed. I thought it was 3 am and that he'd already been to bed, but it turned out it was only 12:15 and I'd only just gone to bed an hour before myself.

Weird. I then slept crappily after that. Now I'm exhausted.

I never have dreams about school but I have always had work dreams no matter what job I was at.

i never dream about work or anyone from work. most of my dreams concern people from my past - at least 5 - 10 years ago at least.

my dreams are sooo much weirder than flying or going to class naked. i only have dreams like once every 10 days or so but they're intense enough to confuse me for a day or so. and for some reaosn there's always a good amount of driving in them. probably an extension of my fascination with Cracker Barrel

when i went back to my high school when my sister graduated, i tried opening my old locker. i realized that i had no idea what the combination was because it became a reflex. then shortly after, i started having these dreams occasionally where i couldn't open any combination lock.

I still have the "going to a final for a class I forgot to attend all quarter" dream, 3 years out of college. Funny thing is...this actually happened to me! Last quarter of college, I was looking at my finals schedule, and I saw "law and economics" on there. I was like, oh nooooo......I had signed up for that class and another class with the intention of dropping one of them. I chose law and economics, but forgot to actually drop it. I begged the administration guy as well as the professor to let me drop it even though it was finals week; ended up getting an incomplete.

I'm glad you brought that up... I dreamt I showed up to play a show with old bandmates (like I will saturday) and didn't have any gear. Kept looking around, trying to think of a way to rig something to play through, didn't work. It was actually pretty scary for some reason.
