<p>I love back to back classes - I hate gaps. I’ve had situations where my professor rescheduled a class to happen in the afternoon (rather than its usual morning time) because of a guest lecturer/presentation/etc and I had ~3 hour gap between my last class and the lecture, and it was terrible. </p>
<p>Getting all of my classes finished in one single swoop means I have solid “class time” and “free time” that can be used for anything. I wish I was the type of person who could be really productive during breaks, but I can never motivate myself enough to get anything meaningful done in 1-3 hours. I always end up just wandering aimlessly around campus. </p>
