I don't think there is a student that can say that they have never procrastinated. So you’re not alone.

Also I would say it depends on what needs to be done, the difficulty, the time they have to finish it etc.

Always. :)

More than I want to, and I can't say that my room is currently tidy.

I do but ironically it doesn't stop me from getting things done. The weights room is a master of teaching discipline :D

It's incredibly rare that i don't procrastinate. I was planning to clean my room like i was procrastinating from my physics assignments, but now im procrastinating from cleaning my room by posting on BoS. :) Procrastination on procrastination.

i'm reading up on Uni accomodation and writing an essay that has nothing to do with school as a means of procrastination. Gotta love it.

It's funny you added (my room's clean) because that's my favourite way to procastinate. My room was so spotless for a while it was sickening.
Though now I don't even have time to procrastinate...Yes I used to put aside time to procrastinate or reward myself...now that's over with and so's sleep by the looks of it.

I put you all to shame, believe me.

For example, I had 3 days off before my first trial exam. I somehow procrastinated all the weekend while having nothing on. At 4 am on the morning of the first exam I woke up to do my first study, and my bag was still where I left it upon getting home 3 days earlier.

Like I can destroy absolutely anyone in the world in a procrastination contest by literally leaving it to the last minute (or 3 hours) to start studying.

Actually, I can beat that. Started studying for many an exam with only around an hour to go, just using taxed notes from some source which I wasn't sure were correct.
