Effects on Pulling All-nighters

So, those of you that are pulling all-nighters to study and raise your grade, stop. There was a survey done at St. Lawrence University in New York of 120 students to see if all-nighters really did help to raise grades, or if it lowered them. The results prove that those who have never pulled an all-nighter had a higher GPA with an average being 3.2, while those who have gone some nights with no sleep before had an average GPA of a 2.95. Those results aren't a huge difference, but it surprised many students and people. The same teacher that did that study, did another study and the results were extremely close. Most of the college students thought that the study made sense, because they had stayed up all night to study a few times and when it came test or presentation time they couldn't remember what they had studied around 3-5 in the morning.
