Re: How was your school day? 2008.

I wish we had that system.

8x 38 minute periods in a day, recess after period 2, 10 minute break after period 4, lunch after period 6.

Last year every lesson was a double period, but this year we have a few singles and they are SHIT. you get fuck all done, such a waste.

Re: How was your school day? 2008.

38 mins? And some schools have 2 recesses? thats just strange.
We have 3x50's and 2x80's most days.

I thought I had a fairly shit timetable until the people doing 4 maths and 4 english in my school got there's. They have 4 periods of maths (260mins) and 1 period of english (50 mins), then another 75mins for 4U english afterschool.

Ouch.

Re: How was your school day? 2008.

Oh, wow.
We have 6 periods of 50 minutes each.

So it goes: 2 periods > Recess > 2 periods > Lunch > 2 periods.

Edit: ahh yeh, mine is the same as yours, sle3pe3bumz. Ps: long time no see! :eek:

Re: How was your school day? 2008.

at my school its:

period, period, period, period, RECESS, period, period, LUNCH, period, period

40mins per subject, 8 in total, excluding early morns/late arvos
and one would have about two doubles a day
school day: 9 - 3:20

The length of each period seems shorter than most. I think 50's better than 40, let alone 38 <<< that seems waaaaay too short

lol 38 minutes. Why not just make them 40 minutes and cut lunch back 10 minutes and recess back 5 minutes?

Other than that, yeah, nah.

They tried to tell us their degrees were superior to metropolitan unis because they were cheaper... we laughed at them.
