| How many hours a day do you spend with your classes?
I know there is a thread similar to this but it doesnt get into specifics as far as posting what you take and how long you spend on it each night. So the question is, What courses do you take and how long on average do you spend a night on it? Do you waste many weekends studying? |

Algebra 3/4: 20-30 minutes. Day before a test can go up to an hour, though. (Ironically, last year for Geometry I spent like an hour a day on homework, haha. Algebra > Geometry by far [for me ] )
P.E.: 0 Seconds. I hate the PE graduation requirement =S
Science: 10-20 minutes
Honors Language Arts: 20 minutes at most
Health: 5-10 minutes
Technical Drama: Once a week, about 15 minutes. | |

| I average about 5-8 hours of actual work done outside of school for most of my classes every quarter (wow, i know)
I am a very bad student in a teacher's perspective, I have a very intricate routine of completing work from each class in various classes.
Mostly during lectures, I sit behind the class and talk with my buddies while doing homework.
I m not a bad student. I m a soph with Calc BC, AP physics, eng h, global h, and chem. I dont understand why people are so stressed over homework =\ | |

| Considering I'm on the block schedule and I only have four classes this term...
Chemistry H: abt 1-2 hours a day
Precalculus: Less than an hour a day (teacher gives out little homework)
Art: None outside of the class (most of the work is during school)
Jazz Band/Wind Ensemble: not including before school practice (1 hour), the actual class during school (1.5. hour), and afterschool practice (2 hours), at home I sometimes practice about an hour and over the weekends a few hours too.
So yeah, most of my time is spent on extracurricular activities instead of classes, haha. I feel very fortunate! | |

| Freshman year:
Honors World History-15 minutes
Honors English I- 15 minutes
Honors Engineering-30 minutes
Honors Pre-cal- 1 hour (Online class)
Honors Applications of science- 15 minutes
AP Art History- 2 hours (online class)
So typically, what, 4 hours and 15 minutes? That + EC's + life, leads me to get to bed at around 2 am each night.
The thing is, none of that time is spent studying-- I don't have to study. All of my classes are project-based, which leads to a ton of out-of-class work. x_x | |
