<p>I commend you because if this ever happened to me, I think I would’ve had a nervous breakdown.</p>
<p>In tough love words, you do have to take responsibility for sleeping in on the exam. I totally feel for you because it’s a VERY stressful situation. One of my friends in my Chemistry class last semester missed the final hour exam (not the final exam) and she said when she woke up and realized she missed it, she felt like she was going to throw up. </p>
<p>Anyway, just talk to the professor. The professor isn’t going to bite you. Explain yourself and see what happens. It’s either the professor will compromise or won’t compromise. You’ll never know till you try. </p>
<p>Good luck!</p>
