Most of the times i dont. It has become a habit with me. Even though i know i wont wake up at the set time, i still go and set the time before going to bed. I am so very used to that. And the next morning when the alarm goes off, i simply switch it off.
I also get up sometimes switch off the clock, then set another time, most often half an hour than the present time, and again off to sleep. I keep doing this a couple of times until my usual time.
What do you do?

i do wake up from the sound of the alarm clock because it means i need to pray already. praying is important and is required for us.

I set my alarm clock for 15 minutes before I need to get up. I do this because every morning, when the alarm goes off, I look at it, groan, and set it for 15 minutes later. Then I get up and get going. Unless it's my day off. Then I say screw it and I sleep an extra hour or two. If my body needs it, then sleep away!! It's my day off, after all!

I set my alarm clock for the same time each morning. When it goes off I usually hit the snooze button once or twice. Then I get up. I just hate getting up early in the mornings.

If I know I have to get up in the morning, I set at least 4 alarms - three on my phone, and my clock-radio. I usually wake up a few minutes before the first alarm (even if it's hours earlier than I normally wake up), and spend the time lying in bed, not wanting to get up!

It would depend on how urgent the next day is. If I can't afford to be late and MUST wake up on time, I will. And in fact, if it is extremely urgent and important stuff, I will wake up automatically before my alarm clock even rings.
Otherwise, I would end up setting it on snoozing and forcing myself to slowly wake up. :P

I have always been good at getting up before the alarm goes off. I go to bed thinking what time I am going to get up and yep...I usually wake up 5 minutes before the alarm goes off. I have been like that since I was a kid and never set an alarm for school and as an adult, for work. I do always set it but end up turning it off.

I usually wake up about 10 minutes before my alarm clock goes off. I think it's because i've got into the habit of getting up at a set time during the week and my body clock has just adjusted. I also hate the sound of alarm clocks going off so this is probably another reason why I wake up earlier, just to save myself from the torture (I even quickly turn the alarm off so it doesn't go off). It's lovely when I wake up and realise that it's the weekend and I can curl up and go back to sleep.
