<p>I'm thinking about getting a bike..would having one help?</p>
<p>I don't like bunching my classes in one block; I like having them spread throughout the day (within reason; I'm talking like 10:00am-4:30pm days) to give me plenty of time to eat and go to the bathroom, relax a little before or after a test/quiz, review class material, get together with others to work on homework/lab reports, study, workout. Not too much time, because then I just get lazy in between but I will tell you that have tried 4 back-to-back classes one semester with only a half hour for lunch in between and even though it was only 3 days/week I'm never doing that again.</p>
<p>I think a bike would possibly make you later. First of all, in a cold climate, you couldn't use it in the winter, and secondly, you would have to worry about where to put it during classes, and lock it up to make sure it wouldn't get stolen.</p>
<p>class never starts early. And I have to block my classes like that or else I end of doing something else in between and not going to class. I'm also on a pretty big campus and had never had a problem making it to lecture on the other side in 10 mins...just walk/ride a bike...don't trust the shuttles if your college has them</p>
<p>thanks everyone!!</p>
<p>Generally on a small campus 10 min is plenty (but then, I'm not sure what you mean by small). Also remember that if classes run late, professors are pretty understanding about you leaving at the normal time in order to get to your next class. They can't exactly argue with that. In contrast to some of the other posters, I've had classes which routinely started early. Basically, the professors believed that whenever they got there it was class time, regardless of what the clock said. But it's highly doubtful that you'll have a class which routinely runs late right before a class which routinely starts early.</p>
