<p>2 hours isn't so bad. </p>
<p>Freshman integrated course block (vector calc & electricity and magnetism) from 8am to 11am was pretty bad, especially since we had our problem sets due then and often stayed up most of the night finishing them.</p>
<p>5 hour bio lab isn't exactly a favorite, either.</p>
<p>Wow - what a coincidence! Last night I stayed up late working on a lab and an assignment and couldn't wake up for my 8am class this morning.</p>
<p>I have them 3 days a week.</p>
<p>I have an 8:30 two days a week and I don't have a choice since it's for my major and the only section they offer. On MWF I have a 9am and it's a gen-ed but I can't really fit it anywhere else. Same goes for next semester :(</p>
<p>No 8am classes in my college, except for vets :)
I have 2 9am starts a week, one on Tuesday for databases <em>yawn</em> and one on Wednesday for a multimedia practical (my favourite class :D). 2 10am starts and 1 blissful midday start. :)</p>
<p>i have a 7am class 4 times a week and its calc. what a way to wake you up. don't take an early class unless you have to fit your schedule. i had to take an early class because of this and it sucks.</p>
<p>Another thing, if your professor got "stuck" with an early class time, s/he probably isn't good and likely not worth it.</p>
<p>I start at 9:30 T/TR, and 10 MWF. I don't like to get up early, but I also can't really get up and then wait to go to class. Like last semester I had my first class at 12:30, and I couldn't get myself out of bed until 12, because there was just no reason to, and then a my day feels wasted. So now, I get up at 9 everyday... seems to work pretty well.</p>
<p>I also don't really like to have classes after 2, if possible.</p>
<p>I have an 8:30 every day of the week. It sucks a lot.</p>
<p>Even if you're a night-owl, I think it's good to have some reasonably early classes. I'm often up 'til 3-4, but I'm still very glad to have an 8:30 class. Sleeping until 11:00-12:00 sucks--have half your day over before you get up. As long as you don't spend the afternoon sleeping, you can get so much more done and have so much more time for fun if you get up early. College is much better once you abandon the sillly notion of sleep.</p>
<p>I agree with randomcollege girl. I may still be in high school, but I really prefer getting up early. I usually get up at 7:30 at the latest on days I don't have school (no matter how late I stayed up... i.e. 3am last night), and 5:45 when I do have school. And the only thing that I have to wake me up is my phone, no parental help here. It's been that way since about 5th grade, so I think I'm at least sort of used to it. I just can't stand sleeping my day away, it doesn't feel right. With the campuses (campi?) I have chosen to apply to, I shouldn't have to worry about 25 minute walks or long breakfast lines. All in all, I think it would be nice to have an early class</p>
<p>Why not just go to bed earlier? What's wrong with going to bed at 11:00? If you have to cut a few corners in your studying to do so, go ahead. If you insist on doing EVERYTHING perfectly, you'll be pulling an all-nighter every single night.</p>
<p>Everyone here goes to sleep around 12-3.</p>
<p>I go to bed around 2 or 3 am and get up 9:00 or 9:30 am during the week. For the weekends, I sleep in no later than 12.</p>
<p>Often times, people just don't have any choice. But after a couple of terms, you'd get used to it, and sleeping for only a couple of hours (I'm talking about 2 - 3 hours of sleeping) every day would no longer be a problem. </p>
<p>Last winter, I had a class that was as early as 7:30 in the morning, and it met 5 days a week. And to make things worse (maybe I just liked to torture myself), I jogged EVERYDAY! So I wook up at 5, jogged at 5:30 - 6:30, and walked to school at 7:00 while having my breakfast (my school was about 1.2 mile away from the place I resided). And two days a week, I had a class that started at 6:00 PM, and ended at 8:45 PM. </p>
<p>Classes I was taking were not a walk in the park either. They were an Engineering fundamental class, C++ Programming language, Differential Equations, and Electricity Physics + lab, so you could just imagine the workload. Yet.. I survived (and did well in all of them). Thanks to God that my schedule now is better (still has to meet at 8:30 everyday, but an extra hour of sleeping couldn't hurt)...</p>
<p>I have class at 9 everyday and it isn't too bad. Even if you stay up until 2, you still end up with at least 6 hours of sleep, which isn't bad at all. I sometimes go to bed at 3 or 4 and I'm fine. I actually don't have problems staying awake for morning classes, I'm much more likely to fall asleep during by 4:15 class than the 9 am class. And I always have half my classes over by lunchtime, which is awesome.</p>
<p>Daily Show comes on at 11:00... you should at least wait till 11:30 =P</p>
<p>Also, not everyone needs the same amount of sleep, you should know how much you need. I can go on 6 hours a night fine, and less (like 2-4) for a day if need be. If I sleep like 9 hours, I won't be able to go to sleep the same time the next night. But other people are different, some of my friends can like, go to sleep on command.</p>
<p>it's 3:19 AM on a monday morning and doubt i'll sleep anytime soon.</p>
<p>but i don't have class until 5 pm tomorrow, so it's ok.</p>
<p>:-D</p>
<p>soccerguy, the Daily Show argument is a valid point.</p>
