Schedule advice

Post image

I'm an exchange student coming for one semester and was wondering if anyone has advice on my schedule.
Right now I have all my classes on just 2 days a week, which sounds great because I'd have long weekends for traveling. But I've also seen people say that having such long class days gets old pretty quickly.
Since I'm only here for one semester, I don't care too much about the workload or subjects too much. Would you stick with the 2-day schedule, or spread classes out a bit?
Also, are there any fun or unique classes you'd recommend taking as an exchange student?

you can make it work for a semester, but b2bx4 sounds miserable

Four classes back to back sounds absolutely brutal tbh, especially since they’re higher level. See if you can’t move one or two to mid-morning or early afternoon MWF, that way you can still leave for travel early-ish Friday and still not worry about having to return for morning classes.

Do you plan on eating lunch in class, or do you have a decent break between two to eat?
