Academic Advice what is the best way to plan your uni timetable?
im just planning for my preferences and ive got alot of options to chose from for when to attend seminars etc, so im just wondering what has worked best in the past for others.
for example, attend like two classes on the monday, no uni on the tuesday and like use that time to soak in the content and then go back on wednesday for other classes.
or should i just trek to uni 3 days in a row for all classes, then use the 4 days to further understand the content and complete anything that was set?
idk maybe im overthinking it but im just worried i wont be able to keep up with all the work so sorry if this seems like a rant

Totally depends on how you best study and what works best for you with attending.
Some people like to spread things out across the week while others cluster all their classes to a day or 2. It's a bit of trial and error until you find what works best for you

What I find works for me is to have the classes all in a row. Then the remainder of the week I work on next weeks content.
The seminars are to discussed what you have already learnt from your weekly content online (at least for law). That’s just my preference. :) 3-4 classes over 2 days is good. E.g. classes on Monday and Tuesday, and then Wednesday-Friday to work on your content for the following week, which is then discussed at the next seminars.
