Then I must have another calculus exam coming up sometime, because I regularly have dreams in which one of the secondary events is I've signed up for a calculus class for which I have done no homework or studying.
Not sure why it's always calculus, as I love calculus (though I did drop out of the third-year-calc class to retake it later).
Interesting. My panic nightmare is always linear algebra/diff EQs and that is the math class I dropped and retook later. The dream always ends with me remembering "hey, wait, didn't I graduate?" and then I wake up.
No, it's been about 10 years. I now teach at a university but not math. But I've been having these recurring dreams (not quite nightmares, but I do wake up in a slight panic) since college.
About 15 years for me. I don't often have dreams (or at very least don't remember them often), but I still get this probably a couple of times a year. Also agree that they're probably not quite to nightmare level---just stress.
My nightmares are always that my teeth suddenly start shattering into a million pieces. Always blamed it on the fact that I stopped wearing my retainer from my teen years and my parents still remind me of it even now in my thirties. Does this mean I'm going to lose all my teeth? ;)
Dreams are an idiolect. It is a symbol for you with a particular meaning. It might help you to read about how the back porch of the house I grew up in took on a particular dream meaning for me:
