How are you done with school at 1:45? So lucky...

We go from 3:30-6 MTW, 3:30 till 7 or 9 (depending on if someone has an event that night so we can mooch their security time) on fridays, 9-5 saturdays. Of course i wish it was 24/7, but supposedly we need "sleep" - a concept i am completely unfamiliar with :-P

Two days a week, the last 45 minutes of school are occupied by a "club" block. Our robotics team simply pulls our team together during this time period.

Seriously, that is a concern for some students that also work, have religious commitments, other sports [HA!] or whatnot. Learn your limit, and if you start to get really behind in everything, let your mentor know. I'm sure they'll understand.

Re: How long?

It varies, but I've been in our lab for no fewer than 8, and up to 14 hours per day since kickoff.

Re: How long?

It seems as though 766 doesn't meet that much. We meet Fridays and Wednesdays from 5:00pm-9:00pm, Saturdays 9:00am-5:00pm. On the last (luckily four day) weekend before Ship Date, we stay pretty much around the clock. And of course, we stand around in the hallways after school debating mecanum vs. omni vs. traditional six-wheel tank drives until we are all tossed out by the hall monitors. Then we proceed to debate somewhere else on campus, hoping we don't get tossed off altogether. So far we haven't been!

Re: How long?

Monday-Wednesday-Thursday 3.10-9.00 (almost 6 hours)
Friday 3.00-5.30(2 and a half)
Saturday 5-8 (3 hours)(I bet it will be longer)(We start 8.45 and yesterday we ended with 9.30)
Sunday 2-6 (4 hours)

So our total is 27.5 hours
