Shaking like a tank. Crazy RPM'S!!!

Just drove to school today and my car has no *****! RPM gauge is jumping around like I have a massive cam but I'm driving down the highway. And like title its shaking the wind out of me. I'm an auto tech and plan to fix it but I was wondering if anyone can steer me the right way. Oil pressure, fuel pressure, volts and vac are all normal. My a/f gauge is jumping around to lean when it does this but i know its not accurate without a wideband any direction is greatly appreciated!
