Why?

80 minutes per period.

Just curious. Could also explain why some people could have a lot more frees that others (aside from the number of units they do).

Some school's schedule the times differently basically.

They may have less period times or more periods depending on their length. Also your study period could be 40 mins. At our school its 80, sometimes double 160.

Wow, I thought my school started and finished early but yours wins

Yeah, only Year 11 and 12 get 7:30 zero periods due to the 'population' of our school (1250 students). We don't have enough facilities to accommodate us all from 9-3, so they need to have us start early compared to the rest of the school so the other years groups actually have classrooms to learn in!

I can't complain though, starting early and finishing early is good. It gives me time to go home and study, and if not study, sleep

Yeah, that went through my school at one stage. It'll pass eventually. Promise

How long are everyone's periods at school?
Mine is 50 minutes but I know some people who have like 72 minutes.

75 minutes.

Also, some schools might have the minimum amount of MX2 classes, (2 a fortnight, 1 hour lessons) or maybe a higher amount of another particular class, leading to 'more free periods' etc etc.

 

[SpiralFlex]

We have MX2 6 times a fortnight for 80 mins.

 

[Parvee]

We have MX2 6 times a fortnight for 80 mins.

Wow really?
I only have MX2 4 times a fortnight for 50mins. :/

 

[Skeptyks]

yeah... we have 2 hours + extra if needed a week.

That's how many you are meant to have.

I remember during our morning MX2 classes, which started at 8am, our teacher would always bring a toaster, a stash of bread + various spreads, 2 big bottles of chocolate milk, various juices.

Sometimes we even had Bacon and eggs.

^Some teachers do that at my school for offline classes, bringing food is not uncommon in sernior classes. Some classes even have cake days (normally last period lessons).

75 minutes.

Same. I'd much rather get up earlier and get home earlier Gives you way more time to do stuff after school!

 

[HybridKath]

I'm pretty neutral with the starting early/finish early deal.

7:30 to 10:20 of maths is too much for me, even with a short break in the middle.

 

[someth1ng]

Well, I start late and finish early so...

 

[SpiralFlex]

Spiral has more frees! 2 periods only on Thursdays!

what
did you just 3rd person yourself
why

 

[Miscbrah]

Last year on Tuesdays I only had 1 period on and the rest were free, so I would go to school at 11:10 and go home at 12:30.

This year I don't have any of that ;(

 

[Aysce]

5 FREE PERIODS ONLY?! I hate my school.
