Our team had to deal with this every year until they moved first semester finals to before Christmas. I used to tell the kids that they had to be good with time management. We would work shorter hours the weekend before finals week and always take the day before the first final off. They would get the rest of the days off when they were taking a final, but the afternoon after their last final, we got back to work. I told them that if they needed to take extra time off to get ready for their exams, they should do so. The robot and the team will always be there after the one week of finals, and we can always catch up if we have to. You cannot make up for doing poorly on your final exams because you spent too much time on the robot when you should have been studying.
