I take them every day and have never missed a pill. I dont take them at the exact same time every day due to a crazy college schedule but its never very far from the time that I am suposed to take it is that still ok? Also have you tried this or has a doctor told you this?

I believe that there is a three hour window were you have to stay between taking the pill every day. I also dont take it at the same time everyday and have not gotten preg...Also my roomate is the same way. As long as its not in the am one day and pm the next I think your fine.
