<p>@marciemi, really? My largest size lecture this year is 5.111 (chemistry) which has around 250-300 students. I think the 8.01/02 and 18.01/02 lectures might be larger though (I’m in 18.022, 8.012).</p>
<p>Each lecture has roughly two recitations a week, which can be helpful. Recitation sessions only contain 15-25 students, so there’s more teacher-student interaction.</p>
<p>I agree, the homework and psets are taking me a lot of time as well…had to skip a couple activities in order to allocate time for them.</p>
