<p>But the subject of this post is the notation of "Time Spent on Class Work: 12.8 hours per week". Assuming a 15 unit schedule with about 15 hours of classroom time, that means that total class work is 27.8 hours per week -- far less than the nominal 3 hours per week per unit total (including classroom time, homework, studying, projects, etc.), or 45 hours per week for a 15 unit schedule.</p>
<p>This appears to be on the low end of the various schools listed, although MIT's 9.4 hours per week is even lower.</p>
<p>If that amount of time is true, then a student actually willing to put in 45 hours per week into class time could take 24 units courses that have a similar workload per unit as the courses that Haas students typically take.</p>
<p>Are Haas undergraduate courses generally considered average, high, or low workload per unit, relative to undergraduate courses at Berkeley overall? If they are considered average, then the observation may extend to Berkeley undergraduates overall.</p>
<p>Ha. When they get their business degrees and start working as an analyst, they’ll be lucky if they spend anything below 100 hours a week. Spending 30 hours or 45 hours right now is a gift. </p>
<p>As for me, I still remember spending 27 hours just on classrooms for 17-unit load and spent at least 5*7=35 hours a week mostly on Chem 4A in my first semester. Pretty close to 60 hours total, but I cannot complain since I expect my work life to be even busier.t</p>

Correction. If you came from the bottom 90% of california public schools, you didn’t. The top 10% of California Public schools beats the **** out of most private schools in CA. </p>
<p>Troy High (where I came from), Whitney High, University High (Irvine,CA), Lynbrook, Gunn, all have average SAT scores in the 1900 range even with a student body of around 1300-2000 students.</p>
<p>i know this kid that was happy he got 1300 on the sat in my school. probably was higher than most kids. wait most kids didnt take it hahaha o yeh im from california :D</p>
