Did you watch this video? That makes education far more interesting

I didn't counted time for Homework with it. They expect us to spend 1 hour and 30 minutes to spend on homework every day.

Mine was:

40' per block, in groups of two, with two brakes of 10' and one of 20', and 4 blocks per day. Now add the gym hours, lab hours and bilingual hours to get a normal schoolday for me.

That's 5:20, then add the brakes: 6:00 hours. Finally, add the bilingual hours: 8:20 per day.

That's 1500 hours a year.

My schooldays were 8 hours a day (with 1.5 hours in total for both recess and lunch). We have a total of 2 months per year on break (combined summer, christmas and semestral break). That would give me roughly 1600 hours in school. :P
