our school's on block schedule so i have 4, 1.5 hour classes each day..

pros:
1). take more courses
2). get more credits than the standard 6 pd classes.
3). take failed classes same year

cons
1).friggen long.
2). if u take one class the beginning of a school year, then take the same class (like span II or sumtin) 2nd semester next year, u pretty much forget everything
3). most AP classes are a year long so 4 ap courses, ur schedules full for a yaer

blah. i hate block schedule
-esther-

i'm block scheduling too. our AP classes aren't full year long.

pro:
1. you seem to get more done
2. only take 4 midterm/final for each class if you're not exempt
3. double block [first and second semester] for classes like ap calc ab then ap calc bc so you dont forget the material
4. you has less to worry about. only 4 classes. in a/b day or 7 period a day classes, you have 7 or 8 classes to worry about every day.
5. the stuff you named.

con:
1. same as your number 2

that's about all i can think of. i like block scheduling. our district was about to go to the 7 period a day or a/b day scheduling and the students were going nuts. fortunately they didnt do that :]

[mnmadi]

6 classes
3 classes/day
2 hours long each

I'd keep it this way, less homework everyday :)

[dearpaperheart.]

4 classes a day.

1hr15mins long on regular days
1hr on short days
1hr10 mins on D.E.A.R days

pros = get more things done
con = i hate it since it's too long
pros = only 4 classes
con = the teachers are so annoying
pros = all my classes this semi is easy
con = you switch over for next semi and by next year, you forget a lot.

erm
we have 40 min classes(mini) and then we have 1.5 hour(block) clsses
Some ap classes are block and some are year long...depends on which one you take

[litoxshortaii]

we have five 1 hr 20 min long classes each day.. the day feels shorter sometimes bc we had less classes than in middle school but the boring classes feel like forever. it's good when we have free periods though bc i can usually get a lot of my hw done in that time.

[g1na1011]

i have 6 classes right now. each is about 40 minutes

[plusone]

standard is 6 classes at 55min each
there is an optional zero period at 55min
people have random classes in which they dont have a class

for me i have per0-6, plus a 7th period triple of mock trial, mun, and sociology

[sphynkter]

6 classes a day
50 min periods

[__laine]

6 classes a day... for like 55 mins.

last year it only used to be 50 mins but they changed it cuz we get out at 3:15 everyday and come to school at 9:00 on tuesdays so the staff could have meetings. it sucks haha.

[soliitude]

7 classes a day.
50 mins each class

possible 9 classes a day if you take zero period (before school) and 8th period (after school) classes.. but those classes are like drivers, career, and health ed. some seniors only have to take 6 classes if they've met all the requirements

[tru__minute]

4 blocks / day.
thursdays(optional block, in the morning) / fridays- 65 minutes
all the other days - 80 minutes

[xmoogle]

6 classes/55 each on M, T, F

Then block days with 3 classes/120 minutes each on Wed & Thurs.


Man. I hate block days.

[vc1188]

I have 6 classes. M, Th, F- I have all six classes. T, W- I have block schedule (1,3,5 and then 2,4,6)

I never understood schools that do block scheduling, or A/B days for that matter.

We have 8 periods a day, each 50 minutes long. Gym is required in the state of illinois for everyone from k-12, every day. Lunch is also required, but many kids drop lunch for a class even though it's against the rules.

[KIM_SAYS:]

I take 2 classes at high school and 3 and college. If I was just doing high school, I'd have 6 classes, but my schedule couldn't that many this year. Which is fine, since a quarter in college is equal to one year of high school.

[Tranberry]

4 classes a day for 1hr 15 mins each.

[Incise Soul]

I have block schedule
{3 Classes Each Day} {About 2 hours in each}

I like block schedule than regular schedule (All periods) because:

- You don't have to carry all the books around and take them back home everyday
- It's also easier to concentrate in each classes and learn more.
- Also, time seems to pass by faster.

[epuolatnac]

I have 0-6th period (7 classes). Each class is 54 minutes long on a regular day.. I would die if I had block schedule.
