My creativity and efficiency levels aren’t constant. Even if I’m willing to work, I’m not equally able to do my work all the time. I imagine that some people do better work at night.
What if… You have multiple upper division lab reports on a weekly/semi-weekly basis, taking more than a full load of units, and are out having fun on the weekends?
I think the all nighter is worth it 
In high school I pulled two for APUSH – had to write a twenty page paper and it was HELL but when you go through it with a friend it’s really motivating, so long as you pick the right friend who will also be working diligently and won’t get you too sidetracked.
Yeah I’ve done it for papers several times…it’s not fun but I get up at 4am for work and have class directly afterwords so my nights are considerably shorter :’( . I would prefer to get at least a couple hours of sleep so the information can consolidate but unfortunately it doesn’t usually work out that way 
I feel all-nighters are really inefficient. I understand if you pull an all-nighter for a paper or two or stay up til 1-2 AM studying for a big test, but honestly high school papers aren’t meant to keep you up all night and tests can be studied for at night and then in the morning on your way to school or something. People I know who pull all nighters end up doing worse in school because they just sleep during frees and then they say they’ll do work at night but just end up putting it off.
