hi that's me, i was one of the many students. usually at least 30min before though as we often got warned that the submission servers could be slowed down around the deadline itself so i didn't want to risk it

why? adhd. i am close to incapable of starting a task if it's not urgent. it's not fun but forcing my brain to not do that is actual hell

Yeah I literally can’t arse myself to do anything unless it’s within the bare minimum time left.

Which sucks because when I know I can do something easily, I end up giving myself even less time.

I have ADHD too. The trick is to trick your brain into thinking it's urgent by training yourself to have anxiety anytime there is a looming deadline.

Worked great for me and I got a 4.0 in engineering. But now I have anxiety issues.
