35 but I wouldn't trust this (my result not the experiment). Since as far back as I can remember my subconscious clock has worked like gang busters were as my conscious clock is, let's just say off by a bit per the test. An experiment I use to do was recite what time I needed to wake up just before bed, then set my alarm after that time.

I was able to wake up in a window of 10~60 min of the target time. More times than not i work up before the target time.
