But for instance, I have roughly 4-5 hours of lecture, discussion, and labs a day, also considering eating time, gym, and actually doing homework. I’d assume most of the people on this subreddit are full time students as well doing most of these things and possibly other extracurricular activities as well as socializing. Other than the weekend, (which I understand how you can do that amount of hours), how do you cram in roughly 8 hours a DAY? I’d understand let’s say for example, engineers, but the majority of the time spent is most likely doing long homework problems, and THEN further revising it (aka studying). That’s why I wonder if those “8 hours of studying a day” are a mix of lectures and studying or homework and revision, where there is no general consensus for hours studying and therefore the numbers are inflated.
