MWT or all TTh Classes?

cpptom · 11-08-04, 01:27 PM

Hi. I finished registering for winter 2005 and all my classes is on Tuesday and Thursdays (12 units). I plan on registering 16 units next quarter and need some advice. Do you recommend taking all 4 classes on TTh? I commute 45 minutes one way so I like TTh only classes.

Is it too hard to manage all 4 classes in two days a week? Share your experience!

4*2 = 8 hours in school......I sleep late so I can never have the energy to stay awake that long in school...

When you have to commute that far it's definitely an advantage to condense your classes into as few days as possible. However you'll want to take into consideration that TTh classes are a lot longer. If you think you can pay effectively attention for that long then go for it! I personally preferred MWF classes because they are shorter. I tend to start glazing over after the first 1.5 hours. Of course I had the advantage of living on campus.

I go to school every day. Although, in my opinion, I like my classes that are on MWF because classes are only an hour and five mintues. However, I tend to agree with zoedragon in that TTH classes are too long. Two hours for a classes is too long. It might be best to schedule your classes on MWF. If you start at 9:15 AM, with your classes back to back, you could be finished by 1:00 PM. I don't think that would be too bad. Right now I'm taking one class on TTH and two classes on MWF. Its working out just fine for me so far. Hopefully, you find the ideal schedule.

I wish I could spread all my classes throughout the week, from Monday to Friday. MWF seems like a better plan imo.

MWF is better for the states reasons. u have more sessions w/ the teacher... and class isnt SOO LONG. I love that schedule. also on friday, classes dont end (most atleast) past till 2pm, which is cool
