How many classes??

[Artemis]

I have eight blocks/periods in a school day (that is including readblock and band) and my friend Mira (she lives in Northern CA) says that my # of classes is wierd and she only has five.

I think this is not unfair but I'd like to know how many classes (about- on average) people have. (This is including college however I think pertains mostly tp high school).

[gprime]

Six courses this year:

Bio (As I've already taken Physics and Chemistry)
FST (Functions, Stats, and Trig)
Telecom (Required course)
AP US History
AP US Gov
AP English.

Next Year It'll be down to 5:
AP Bio (Double block, hence the dropping of one course slot)
AP English
AP Statistics
Dual Enrollment Hour 1
Dual Enrollment Hour 2

The dual enrollment courses are of course courses taken at a private university.

Though I suppose 5 is a decpetive number as next year I also have AP Comparitive Gov and AP Macroeconomics to take online.

[Mamfy]

In a day I have 5 lessons.

But, if you're asking about how many subjects I study, it would be a lot.

English. Maths. Biology. Chemistry. Physics. History. Drama. PE. German. RS. IT. Food Tech etc

[clueless]

8 lessons, minus a 20 minute break and a lunch hour.

currently studying for 11 GCSE's, aswell as some other stuff on the side which isn't going to be examined externally. :)

[Mamfy]

8 lessons a day? Blimey! How long are they?>

We have 5 a day that are an hour long each

[Lindsay]

i have four classes a day. And they switch up about halfway through the year so we get every class.
mind you my classes are an hour and 20 mintues.

[Brianna.]

We've got 8 periods a day, but I only have about 6 a day...The other two periods I have off.

[Ben]

i take 3 subjects, one of them i only have 1 lesson a week though so it barely counts lol
just under half of the week (on average) i get free, but have to be in school

my old school had 6 periods a day, 50mins each, new school has 5 periods, an hour each

lunch is 1:10 - 2:00 which is way too late. it's so if you have a lesson after school, you have effectively 2 lessons, break, 2 lessons, lunch, 2 lessons, home

8 periods a day sounds mad, bri

8 lessons a day? Blimey! How long are they?>

We have 5 a day that are an hour long each
40 minutes each. We have a different structure in our school.. the kids don't move around, the teachers do.

[Mamfy]

Oh nice. You just sit then :D

[Tim]

soon as you finish school. pressure/stress just disappears. till u get to college lol

[michelle]

i have 6 periods in a day
2 in a morning- break-2 more- dinner-2 more then home they all about 50 mins long

[NATAL!E]

We have five periods a day, each lasting one hour, except the first lesson, which is an hour and five minutes, as they believe we work better in the morning.

Break is about 15 minutes, and lunch is one hour.

Our structure is:

Registration/Form - Two Classes - Break - One Class - Dinner - Two Classes - Home.

Our timetable works over a two week rota, so everyone gets an equal amount for the subject time needed. This year I'm doing: english, maths, sciences, french, geography, music, history, religious studies, ict, pe.

I think that's about all of them, then next year, I'll probably be doing a short course in citizenship, as I'm taking religious studies a year early to get it out of the way, lol.

Im doing a Btec so I do 1 subject all day 4 days a week :D
*gets fridays off :P*

[The Reaper]

7 lessons a day, 5 subjects. I'm doing maths a year ahead though. Going to University at the end of sixth form since 7th form is a complete waste of time.

[iaxa]

i have 8 peroids a day that run for 40 mins each and only 20 mins each lunch.

and i do maths, english, science, hpe, ict, bee (business studies), history and geography

[same_damn_thing]

We have 4 classes a day, and what would be four quarters, but we call them semesters. Each class is an hour and a half long...subtracting the lunch period which is 30 minutes. You have 16 credits you have to earn a year before entering the next grade. In order to get the credit you have to pass the class. Some classes only last one quarter minimum, and some last two quarters max. None of them last all year. So you get a variety. The classes I'll have this year are Biology, 9th Grade PE, Global Studies, German 1, English 1, Insights, Consumer Economics, Algebra 2, Geometry, Business Law, Drivers Ed. I have 5 of those for two different quarters.

[Dazzle]

At the moment, more than 6.
