I’m commuting to college and I’m taking 3 classes this semester. I have a class on mondays and wednesdays at 11:30-1:20pm but on wednesdays it’s the only class I have. I’m considering moving this class to tuesdays and thursdays 7:30am -9:20am, also it’s important to note that on those days I have a 9:30am class so I’d only have 10mins inbetween. But in turn I would have wednesdays off. I’m thinking this would be beneficial to me since I am a commuter and would only be commuting to campus 3 times a week rather than the 4 days I currently commute. But is having a morning class 2x a week worth having 2days off? What do you guys suggest?
I’ll move the class to take the day off.
In my country normally the classes start at 7 am all days, all day, no days off.And we don’t have dorms we conmute 1 hour or two in the morning and come back in the afternoon, in USA the schedule is very easy.
Wow I can’t imagine having an 1hr+ commute, I now feel lucky only having a 20min commute! But anyways yeah as of now I’m thinking moving the class is my best option. The only con would be how early it is to me, the semester just began so I know I’d be able to handle it right now but I don’t about later on. Still I think the pros outweigh the cons. Thanks for the reply!
If you are sure that you won’t oversleep or miss the class because of the early hour, it makes sense to consolidate your schedule. It would be nice to have that midweek day to study or write papers or work a few hours if you also have a part-time job.
Yes that’s really the only reason why I couldn’t decide whether to make the change to my schedule or not. It’s going to be a struggle not oversleeping and being awake/ready in the morning. But I do think having a day off makes up for having class so early. Thanks for the input!
As much as it’s not fun to go to a class early in the morning, I think it’s worse to have to commute to campus for just one class. I’d say change it.
I agree too. I’d move it to the earlier time. Is the prof the same? I know my S has taken evening classes and early am classes just because the specific prof had a great reputation. Sometimes, it’s worth a little pain. 
No, they’re different professors. Just an update, I did end up moving the class to the earlier time. I agree that having to commute to campus for one class only isn’t worth it. Thanks for the advice!

Sounds like it worked out. Have a great year!
