If you could choose, which option do you prefer? Assume that there's a minimum amount of time for school, like 6 hours of school or something, so you can't skip or ditch class.

Edit: By everyday, I meant monday to friday. By fewer days, I meant you get some days off in exchange for more classes on the days you go to school.

D for me.
I prefer working on my own time at my own pace, and having more days off gives me more opportunity to do that.

In high school, I used to try to either set my first period or last period free so I could sleep in or leave early.
In college I had one semester where I had class on tuesdays thursdays and a lecture monday night.
My grad school is more or less once a week BUT you have to do so much homework

My current schedule is Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11am-9:30pm. And then I have two online classes.

as a college student who is currently doing class tues/thurs 8am-7pm and friday 9:30-1, option a/b are vastly superior because the long day just drains you and the effects compound to the next day. a and b are personal preferences but i think being out and about while it's still bright outside is good for learning and studying.

@SunsetChaos: yeah, again, it really feels different for every person I guess. I've had multiple 9-5 days in prior semesters and I was perfectly fine with those. Maybe the situation is choosing classes you enjoy, then you'll knock out the factor of having to sit through a long day haha

@lukiie nah, just wanted to see what other people like. Personally, I end up procrastinating if I have lots of time after school
@deathprinny but more stress in a single day! Well, maybe not stress but more boring classes to sit through

Option D leaves soooo much more breathing room

Lol... prepping your schedule for next sem?

I think the factor of waking up is pretty much specific to you. I know some people that really hate waking up... I don't mind it. Actually, I prefer it because it kind of pushes you to get things done earlier rather than later. Later can be for relaxation (easier said than done haha).
