Why do undergraduate 'management' students stay up late?

Also, it seems that sophomore A&P students get the least sleep at 5.8hrs.

The sample size of the sophomore A&P students is only 6 people, so that could explain the low average.

Ah, that will do it. I didn't realize that the sample size was so small. Also, what keeps them honest? People can be poor sources regarding their own behavior.

it also looks like juniors and seniors tend to get more sleep -- maybe they get smarter about sleep?

And postgrads go to bed earlier, so they do get more sensible.
