I am taking a professional exam tomorrow. Last night I had a dream I passed it. Is this a premonition or precognition? Am I seeing the future? Does this mean I don't have to study tonight and can drink beer instead?

So it's only a premonition if it comes to pass? Isn't that a bit of selection bias?

Thanks psi. It's a real pleasure to benefit from the knowledge of such a prestigious organization as the Psychic Explorers Club Premonitions Registry. I can't thank you enough for dispelling my ignorance.
The definition I used was more in line with that old rag called the Merriam-Webster dictionary.
1 : previous notice or warning : forewarning
2 : anticipation of an event without conscious reason : presentiment

Of course it does. Haven't you learned anything from hanging out in Paranormal Phenomena? Hey, maybe your Spirit Guide may want to join you for a few beers.

I would keep studying because if you are as well informed about the exam material as you are about psychic phenomena then I can logically (no psychic powers required) predict the lowest score ever recorded.
For your information and to correct your ignorance here is a definition
"The Psychic Explorers Club Premonitions Registry
PREMONITION
A feeling or impression that something is about to happen, especially something ominous or dire, yet about which no normal information is available.
From Thalbourne’s Glossary"
and a link.

Hi What everyone said is true, be positive is a must!!!!!! but you need to take responsibility for your life, I fail many times in school but now after 30 years of that every single fail make me grow. I know it is difficult to see that know but it is what it is. I work with people that never grow up because they never took responsibility and know they are suffering or make suffer others. The importance of a healthy self esteem for the foundation of your existence cannot be underestimated. Self esteem is important because it has an impact on your life and choices. Your self-value is the source of your mental health. Self esteem is the idea that you have about yourself. It is how valuable and important you think you are. How you respect yourself as a person. Be strong!!!

To begin with, would you not go for a job interview just because you dreamed you were offered a job at company you applied for a job from?
That's just a dream. You might have thought of passing your exams alot and it resulted in a dream. One thing people should understand is that no matter how good one can be,practice must be the first priority. This is because exams are tricky and you never know whats going to come.
So in short, make sure you go through what you have learnt to pick up what you might have left out.

Save the beer for celebrating once you have aced it.
The dream could have been a premonition or just optimism in disguise. Keep studying and Good Luck!!!

Ummm I would study. Don't get so cocky on a dream you had. If you work hard and study, then there is a very good chance you will pass. But if you go out and drink beer and all, then I wouldn't bet on you passing. Dreams are not reality. They are desires. You desire to pass the exam, now study and do what it takes to make your dream come true! See what I'm saying?

The mystical energy of the god cosmos has given you a revelation.
When you dream about giving up all your worldly possessions and living the life of a hermit, let me know. I know a guy.
Edit:
These people seem to have missed that this is a facetious question. Too funny.
I love you Peter D.

uh no, it was a dream. You still have to go take the test, and you need to know the answers.
If you had a dream that you were a fisherman, would you show up the next day at the docks?
Come on, be real man.
