<p>Im a a prefrosh and I was wondering a couple of things about lecture halls:</p>
<p>1) If I want a seat in the first couple of rows, should I arrive early to class or are there always seats available if you come on time?</p>
<p>2) This might sound silly, but are we allowed to get up and go to the bathroom during a lecture? (it may seem rude)</p>
<p>Thanks! :)</p>
<p>depends on size of class. generally don't arrive late there should be room. and yea you can get up and go to bathrooms. it goes for most small classes too. just get up and go</p>
<p>2) Make sure to raise your hand and get the hall pass first.</p>
<p>It really depends on the class. Like, for some reason, my diffEq lecture this semester was always packed, and sometimes I couldn't get a seat because I was always late for class. If I'd gotten there five or ten minutes before class, I definitely wouldn't have had a problem getting front seats. It must've been a popular time slot, because my friends in another lecture said they always had spots open = 0</p>
<p>lol most lecutres you could. one of my lectures chem 208 couldn't cause hundreds of engineers joined us this term making it very packed. chem 208 was full during sign up lol</p>
<p>1) depends on the class. if you like to sit in the front, you will be able to do that easily in most classes. some classes, you might have to arrive 10 min early.</p>
<p>2) you can, but try not to during lectures. it's only 50 min, and you have 15 min in between. you'll miss stuff, and it might not be that easy to get in and out of your seat.</p>
<p>It's usually not hard to get a seat in the front...I usually sit up there because my vision isn't great and I can never seem to get the correct contact prescription :-)</p>
<p>As for bathroom break....try and hold it if it's a 50 minute lecture...you'll be surprised at how short they are.</p>
<p>As you move up and take upper div courses, the class time gets longer (sometimes up to 3 hours) and so it's ok for a break. For the most part, it's totally ok to just get up and go. I had an 8 person seminar last semester and the prof. was fine with us just leaving (as long as we came back!)</p>
