I so work sometimes in college, although its more stuff that is done there then at home. When I do things at home it is usually because I have procrastinated for a long time so I only have like an hour to get the stuff done in.

I do everything at home. Sometimes I go to the library to do hw, but I don't have any in-class work. We usually have a midterm and a final, and then have to do homework at home or write essays. Overall, I am SUPPOSE to do a lot of work. I doubt I do more than 1 hour per day...

I think my school says you do 2 hours of homework per 1 hours of class, so that would mean I would goto school for 4 hours 3 days a week right now and then have 8 more hours on those days of homework, I think I do about 20 minutes a week total unless I have a paper or something big to do/study for. Next semester I think would be impossible for me to do how they claim I should since I will be going two days a week, each day I will be at school for 6 hours of learning time, so that and my 12 hours of homework means 18 hours of school fun on those days.

Haha yeah they say 2-3 hours per class hour. It's complete bs. If I spent 2-3 hours per class hour studying at home then I would get like 100%'s on everything and have no social life, and no time to play guitar/video games. Instead I spend about 5 minutes per class hour and get 85-95's. I think it's a fair trade off to have a life and get a couple B's here and there...

They do it to scare all the silly freshmen. And I'm sure if you were super not intelligent, it may help to study that much.
I like to act like I'm studying, and then waste a lot of time doing dumb things on the internet. But I'll do it in the library or something, so I feel like I'm studying... what a strategy.

I do what griff does, the 5-10 minute thing seems to work. I figure I am at a 3.76 right now so I am fine. The only time I spend like an hour or more doing homework for a class is because I have procrastinated so much on a paper or something that I have no other choice. That is actually going to happen to me this weekend since I have a paper due monday and all I have done so far is the intro sentence.

If it works then there is no need to change it. Some of my papers I can not do that on though. One I have due in 2 weeks I have to actually work on since it requires me to read philosophy, but for my one due monday I can probably do it in like 2 hours and another one due in two weeks in like an hour.

Heh.
I never cracked a spine on a textbook first year.
Ended up with grades in the range 86-94
(of course,most of our first year courses were essentially just samplers, to see if that particular field is something you want to continue learning about)
I remember the hardest part of first year was implementing arrays as queues and stacks, and then binary tree traversals. Pretty light.
(But then, I was already familiar with Java, so I had a leg up on the applied portion of the material)
Well, I'm rambling again. (Back in high school, I was voted 'most likely to talk someone to death'. Naturally, I was the only one who did not find this hysterical.)
