BF2S Forums Your university workload

If I had Omni's schedule I'd create an art piece called "Brains on Wall" at the end of that 6 hour seminar. My artist's tool would be a Berretta.

Eh, I'm actually a big fan of the national parks in Quebec. Specifically Parc-du-Bic. Went camping there last summer, it was beautiful and amazing. There was also an awsm poutine place on the highway going up to it (Route 132 I think).

Waterloo literally doesnt do anything but study.  Theres nothing to do there, lamest place in the world.

Pretty much. Wilfred Laurier is just down the street though and they do nothing so there's non stop parties there.

I easily spend over 50 hours a week on homework though.

Its a little hard for me to buy considering how people like to exaggerate a little.  Id buy 25 hours, but even that is too much. whats he doing wasting his time on bf2s?!?!? man, youve gotta get to some homework, pronto!

My friend did Aeronautical Engineering and Aerospace at UNSW
First semester was 32 hours and that was the shortest of the 4 year degree.

Ok, can someone explain "Clock Hours" and "Credit Hours" to me.

Please?

Clock hours: actual amount of lecture/discussion/etc. time; i.e. time spent in the classroom.
Credit hours: # of units/hours you're taking. Each class has a number of units associated with it, usually relative to how difficult it is or how much class time and outside time is involved. Usually, but not always. [I could go on and on about how the easy english and art history classes are worth more units than an engineering or intense science course, but since the engineers and scientists have to take more classes, the # of units the classes are worth are lowered so that engineers and scientists graduate with 400 units while the artsy fartsy people graduate with 10.]

In many cases, the numbers will be the same, but not always.

My last quarter in college I had 12 units/credit hours, but 14 hours of class time (2 hours twice a week for two classes and 3 hours twice a week for a third class).
