[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is at one of those privates where 3-4 hours of homework per night is the norm. Alumni at college who come back to visit the students almost all say that college is easier and far less stressful. And this is kids at Ivies and other top 25s. [/quote] I would have to think that the college schedule is probably largely responsible for this. I remember in college I had one semester where I only had class on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thuresdays. That meant a 4-day weekend all the time to do other things (homework, party, extra-curricular). It's easier to manage a homework load when you're not "at school" from 7-3 every day of the week.[/quote] The schedule made a huge difference for me. The later start time was a much needed relief as well. Even now, I wake up later as a WOHP than I did as a teenager in high school. [/quote]
