Here is some info
- I can use the computer with the mag charger in but the battery icon will stay at 0% and read ( Not Charging )
- The mag cable is glowing bright green
- When I turn the computer upside down and press the little indicator to see how much battery is on nothing happens
- It's a early 2007 Macbook pro 10.5.8

I have exams tomorrow and really need to use it
Please help me!

Your battery is dead so work with the computer plugged in. Go to an Apple store to get a new battery when you have the time. Save your work frequently.

If someone trips and unplugs the adapter, my computer dies

Either the battery is toast or there is a connection problem and it's not getting charged. It's likely a dead battery.

Better sit away from people and near a reliable power source. Also, I'd save frequently, both to your harddrive and a flash drive, just in case you have a problem/issue.
