I once tried to take Quantum Mechanics at 8am. I went for a few weeks, and then I started falling asleep in in class. One day I realized before getting out of bed that I just fall asleep there, so I may as well stay in bed, and it was all over...
...so I tried again next quarter. This time, it was Quantum Mechanics A--I had previously tried skipping into C--so the professor probably just thought I couldn't handle the material without the stuff that came in A/B, and realized I was in "the wrong one". Well, it happened again.
I tried a third time. This time, showing up to B, the professor must have figured out what was happening and I kind of remember her laughing at me a bit. When it happened a third time I gave up, stopped ever trying to do early classes, and, 20+ years later, give students the advice you were given ;P.
- OkayPhysicist 4y agoScheduling Quantum before 10am should be a crime. It's hard to stay awake for even when it's not directly competing with sleeping in. Our class ended up rescheduling Quantum II because having it first thing after lunch was too much of an invitation to snooze. Luckily the class was small enough that a quick survey found we could push it back an hour.
