Once in a while I'll get 8+ hours of sleep. Most of the time, it's not more than 6.
I can function pretty normally with a minimum of 2-3 hours of sleep, though. With 2 I won't feel great, but with 3, I'll feel as if I slept normally. I do get sleepy a little earlier, though. Somewhere around 11, I'll start to get sleepy. Normally, this starts at around 1.
I once, during summer school some years ago, went a whole month on 3 hours of sleep every night. I started to feel the effects of this towards the end of that month. I started falling asleep in class and drooling on my desk... something I had never in my life done. I knew I was at my limit, but luckily, that was the last days of summer school.
I do admit that at that time, I was running off of Mountain Dew. I no longer drink that kind of stuff now, though. Soda, I mean. Or any caffeinated drinks in general. Only once in a long while.
