Walking from class to class without being late
so I just realized that i have 4 classes in a row with a ten minute interval to run from one side of the school to the next. IS this enough time to be early enough to get good seats and prepare paer pen etc to start taking notes on time?

hmm it should be good.... you will probably be just in time if you are travelling from ITB to the arts quad (or vice versa)

You won't have a problem getting across campus in 10 minutes but you won't get your pick of seats.

I did CNH to ITB in 5 mins once without running. I usually do it in about 7. And I had a nice aisle seat a good 90% of the time in both places.
Just don't screw around.

It's almost always do-able in 5-7 minutes walking and just enough time to get ready for class. Where are your classes? You'll pretty much be able to make it everywhere except for maybe KTH/TSH to ITB or something.

I'm always late. Health Science Building to basement of CNH/TSH in 10 minutes and a bathroom break? I can't do it in 10 minutes.

You'll be fine if you know the fastest way from point A to B. Just remember that the shortest distance from one point to another is a straight line, and that the busiest routes can be as slow as the longer route because of slow walkers.

You could probably do it without the bathroom break. I've gone from MDCL to CNH in under 10 minutes before.

I can do it without a bathroom break, but I usually have to go to the bathroom. LOL

>_> It won't be a problem. Worst case scenario, leave your prior class 1-2 minutes early while people are packing up (that way you won't have to wait for the surge of people at the doors).

some rooms/buildings have clocks that are slightly ahead, so the prof will start lecture before you get there Dx
ex. ABB 102 clock was a few minutes late so the prof would hold us exactly to :20, without realizing that it was actually :22 or :23. then the clock in CNH is slightly ahead, so when I dashed across campus I would always end up arriving as class begun x'| forget about front row seats....

It sucked walking across campus during the winter, but the fresh air/exercise is definitely worth it!

I have never sat in the front row. Out of curiousity, for those who have, do you find it beneficial?
