I'd totally go with everyone and their suggestions! I know when I had jury duty I just wanted to go . You can get your summons rescheduled, since being a full time student is a valid excused. But even if you fill out the forms for that you WILL get rescheduled for another date (hoping that the new date doesn't interfere with your school schedule). Since it's too late now (and I'm a total scaredy cat, plus my Dad's a lawyer....) I'd show up EARLY!!!! and get whoever I could and let them know what's going on. (Maybe even embellish if needed that you've got a test later on in the day....)

Best of luck! I know when I showed, I waited for a few hours and then was dismissed. But I was lucky enough to get jury duty for the DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS! So everyone on the docket that day settled! (To get downtown in time I was up before the sun rose by a LOT!)
