0Go ahead, burn the midnight oil, cram it all on the last day. Sleep can wait until the next day or probably the next week.
There's just one hitch. You lose 1 IQ point for every hour of lost sleep.
What's more, you will be more prone to making mistakes after staying up the whole night.
Cognitive tasks that usually took a few minutes seem to take a lot longer because you find it difficult to concentrate.
Lack of sleep comes with a bonus - Irritability.
Extensive research shows that most accidents occur when people skimped on sleep.
Fortunately the lost IQ resulting from sacrificing sleep is also reversible if you make good on your sleep
So, would you like a few extra IQ points?
