It is definitely a symptom of something and not a disorder itself.
Maybe just addicted to the rush of pulling it off.
Are you able to calculate how much time a particular paper will take to do a good job and the start it that amount of time before it is due?
I would think that the harder assignments get and the more research needed to do a good job the riskier it would be.
My daughter is just like me but always made the mistake of waiting to long to do a good job and her grades suffered.

Yeah, in a way I can calculate the amount of time needed. I've never been late in my work. The harder the assignment, the bigger the thrill

Tests are easier in terms of procrastination than papers are because I just listen in class. I don't read the textbook or study before a test, so I just rely on previous memory from the lecture. It's worked pretty well for me so far, and I don't get below the range of 98-100+%.
I actually just graduated

and I'm going for another degree now.
