I have this every semester for my entire degree. 25 contact hours a week.
You just have to be good at prioritising and staying organised i think, then it wouldn't be too bad but i do feel for you.

I'm not used to such high contact hours in my degree so i've really got nothing on you, but i have had an awful semester and my timetable hasn't helped. Hopefully things will look up next semester =]

EDIT: Hang on how on earth could people be full time students if they only go 2 days a week? Unless you have super condensed days o_O

Economics degree about 8 hours contact a week, i think

commerce about 12 horus contact, so u can stick that into 2 days, but it's usually 3 due to poor timetabling.

Semester 1 '10- Was 3 days until about week 9, then it was 2 days..

Semester 2 '10 - 3 days (i finish at 9pm on Tuesdays [i start at 11 or 12, but have a huge gap in between], then i have a 9am start on Wednesdays >.<''')...

The best was 2 days a week in semester 2 2009!!!!!:rofl::rofl:

Previously i've had 4-5 days a week...

Next semester I have about 6 hours. Part-time arts is pretty intense.

I have 12 hours. I try to group my classes so I feel guilty if I skip classes. Like, I don't just have a 1hr lecture on one day, without anything else.

19 contact hours, 5 days a week for Semester 2. It's a 1 hour addition from Semester 1 with a change from a 4 hour bio prac per fortnight to a 3 hour bio prac weekly. I knew this year would be a dud.
