My senior year English teacher told us that back when he was in school, he never wanted class on fridays because he wanted one day to sleep in. I thought this was a great idea, so I try to avoid MWF classes. I made a huge mistake my first semester by choosing an 8:30 a.m. class, and I'm not NOT a morning person AT ALL. When I did muster up enough energy to get out of bed and go to class, I was always late and half-asleep, and didn't retain anything the professor said. Thank God it was only English and all our assignments were done outside of class. I now know to not schedule any classes before 10:00 a.m. lol. I also like to have my labs on Mondays to get them out of the way. (Orgo is gonna suck for me because at my school it's a 6-hour lab held 3 days a week😡).

So, what do you take into consideration when making your schedule each semester?
 
i have class at 8am MWF but atleast my lab is at 11am

I wasn't a morning person either but I became one because after 9am Parking at my school is b****!! I also try to avoid friday classes unless its one class in the morning and I have the rest of the day to study or something.
 
It makes me shudder even thinking about trying to learn information at 8:00 a.m. :scared:

lmao its anatomy and physiology to boot...oh did i mention my lab is11am on a FRIDAY! atleast i get out of school 10:45 on MW off on tuesday and a 10 oclock class on thursday for 1 hour
 
I have Physics 2 at 8:30 in the morning next semester. Barf. I don't like physics already, so making it early in the morning is just going to be my downfall. I'm literally a waste of space at that time. I had Microanatomy at 8:30, too, a couple semesters ago, and I would doze off during class (there was maybe 15 people in the class) all the time, even if I got adequate sleep the night before. I think that's really rude, so I felt SO BAD, but I couldn't help it!. I would be holding my coffee and my eyes would just close and my prof would call me out and be like "I think you need some more of that caffeine!" haha whoopsies
 
I got early ones next semester 910 mwf and 830 t/thu,though I hate it at least I can study more during the day and not as much as night.....just looking on the bright side hah
 
Well, before my last semester, i picked classes around what i need, interest, teacher, and time. Like you iqe2010, i am not a morning person. So, with a few unavoidable exceptions, i didn't take 8am classes. Everything else i tried to fit around the day. I attempted to carve out a lunch time and schedule most of labs on one day, so i had a lab day and a rest day. Of course this was my ideal schedule that never worked out as perfectly as i would have liked haha.
 
Try to go for classes that fall on Tues, Weds and Thurs. That way, you have basically a 4 day weekend every week :meanie:

Haha. 2nd semester senior year, I had classes only on Wednesdays and Thursdays. Best schedule ever.
 
Jeez, I'd hate to have you guys as my doctor if you didn't like me and I scheduled an appointment at 8:30 in the morning. Suck it up and do what you gotta do.
😛

If it makes you feel better, I am a morning person.
 
I always start with English, but that's just me.

My day will begin with physics at 0800.
