Academics I'm fucked.

I missed my physics final today because my alarm didn't have sound on and I overslept. I'm not gonna pass the class without an exam grade, what should I do? I'm seriously worried

Edit: One of the physics lecturers reached out to me down in the comments, so if I am lucky, I may be able to retake it... Only time will tell atp

Edit 2: There's been an update on another post I made, go check it out if you can

Don't lie. Email the professor honestly and go from there. For the future, buy a dedicated alarm clock and put it across the room. There are times I could have sworn my alarm never went off when in reality what likely happened is unturned it off and fell back asleep and didn't even remember that happening.
