Quizzes? Ready. Presentations? Ready. Long tests? Ready. Midterms? Ready. Hell week? Hell yeah, are we ready. We asked around what students do to survive the ever-despised hell week. Read along and maybe you can pick up a tip or two and catch yourself sitting so casually, just watching all the heavy workload breeze by. Because that's what we're built for, aren't we? Grace under the hardest of pressures. To hell with hell week, we say.
"I play video games, [they] reduce my stress and worries."
— Benjamin Go, BS Management
"I read Stephen King books; reading keeps the momentum in my mind running."
— Jeffrey Teh, AB Creative Writing
"I draw—it helps in calming and clearing the mind."
— Reena Tan, BS Communications Technology Management
"I eat... A LOT."
— Alyssa Chuidian, AB Communication
"I indulge myself with whatever vice I have save from drinking to relieve stress."
— Migs Ocampo, BS Management Information Systems
"I survive the hell week by simply going home after my exam. Then i rewrite all my notes and refresh my memory. Last, I sleep as early as possible."
— Carlo Delos Santos, AB Psychology
"I [try not to] think of it as hell week and just do stuff one at a time."
— Justin Rafols, BS Management Engineering
"I study all my lessons again and submit school work if there's any."
— Jerome Abellon, AB Interdisciplinary Studies
"I get through hell week with:
1. Divine guidance
2. Coffee
3. Post-its for reminders
without:
1. Sleep
2. Social life"
— Cyrille Lagamson, BFA Information Design
"Prepare well and take one step at a time, by studying in advance (at least a week before hell week) and sleeping early and praying to Papa Jesus."
— Carlo Toledo, BS Management
"Doing requirements way ahead of time; NO to cramming!"
— Lance Sese, BS Health Sciences
"Basically, I organize everything that I have to do a week before and try to prepare for it as soon as I can."

"I find it easiest to get through hell week by taking it one at a time. I don't study a lot on regular days--I'm a natural crammer so I study for tests the night before and/or on the day of the test. It's not a good way to get A's but at least it gets me through hell week without feeling like a zombie."
— Ashley Maglaqui, BS Management Engineering
"I play music with my piano, it soothes and relaxes the mind with the songs I heard."
— Marty Franco, BS Legal Management
"Hell week's purpose is to see if we know how to prioritize our activities. To survive hell week, I do the best I can to manage my time wisely by providing sufficient time for all the things I have to do."
— Gabby Liwanag, AB Communication
