yea, make use of your spare time at the college, and you can have several days of doing other stuff instead.

Seriously you can cram your whole week into two days?....
Concerning your choice, it depends what classes'll benefit your goals most, and how serious you are about those goals. I'm guessing that since you didn't care what classes you'd end up with, you aren't immensely motivated, so you should totally go for the two day week.

You're lucky you've got such an easy choice :s. I've got classes from 8AM to 6PM every day, not including the hour or subway transportation in mornings and evenings

have you ever thought of adding/crashing the courses you want?

i don't even sign up for most of my courses now. i've found that if you're persistent, you can almost always get into the class you want.

Screw college, go out and get laid bruh!

Personally, having just finished my college degree myself, I'm starting to wonder just what use it is, seeing as every job I've applied to so far is asking for experience rather than education. Its like getting a raid guild in world of warcraft: they wont invite you if you don't have experience and gear but you can't get either without getting into a raidguild.

The gear is like my diploma, noobs in full epics that are obviously eBayed.

Edit: eBay being my university.

Twice a week is a terrible idea, but the three hour commute might make it the better idea.

And if it's only 7 miles away, riding a bike and doing it every day would really make way more sense. (Every campus I've ever been on has bike racks).

im also for taking the bike. You will get used to it quickly. besides 20-35 min bikeride is nice in the morning before you go to your college classes.

I've also done both ways (I live in Vallejo and commute to San Francisco for school), and I have to say that doing it in as few days as possible is usually best. You may feel a sense of getting burnt out, but as you'll have 5 off-days per week, that'll give you plenty of time to rest and get homework done. While if you take the daily classes, all that traveling will get to you and you'll feel as if you barely have time to get homework or anything else done.

Do the two long days at college. TRUST ME. I have done both, short days with extra tavel vs long days with more days off.

If nothing else you waste a TON of time in traveling if you go with what I would consider the bad route. It forces you to do more homework on certain days, but overall it makes your week flow a lot better.

Do the monday/wednesday route 100%.

I can go twice a week monday and wednesday but my classes are spread out throughout the day and I'll be there from 8 am to 10 pm.

An important factor is.. the classes that are required at some point to graduate and for more classes. are teh 5 days a week ones.

But if I take the monday/wednesday classes.. its true i'll be kinda stuck doing nothing at college all day. But I'll have more time to hunt for a job. Whereas if im spending 5 hours everyday going back and forth not so much..


this one. trust me. you will be much happier about this stuff when you look back on it later. plus, you'll find something to do in your free time.
Fuck you, I have a degree in mathematics and I speak 12 languages. (I called the World Cup final in 2008 btw)

Definitely this option. Having done 5 days a week with 2-3 hours travel per day for average 3 hours a day, this is the only option that won't make you hate life.
Their are four errors in this sentance.

Do the long days. During your breaks you can study or use the Campus Wireless to play starcraft.

Starcraft fits perfectly on a thumbdrive and with the no cd update you can jam on the school computers all day long .

This was a pretty obvious choice man. Taking the 2 hour bus ride is not work it unless it is a MUST. I know I have done it. So go with the latter and go M and W. Just make sure you bring snacks, music, and whatever else will keep you entertained. Just stay in the library to do hw and what not.
