Although I know that there are hundreds of other students who don't have any frees, I have not met anyone that doesn't have any frees at my school.
So, it get heaps annoying when people at school ask me when my free period is and I reluctantly have to reply "I don't have any".

i get 7 every 2 weeks. soooo not enough.
and during the frees um i suppose i just do maths homework. b/c that takes up my whole arvo after school at home so yeah. or i attempt to make study notes which doesnt really end up happening most times. u should get into the hang of doing something productive during your frees - at least get some work u'd be doing at home out of the way so u have more time to do what ever

Well...I have one and a half hrs of free period a week, because I dnt have to do sport, so we can choose to go home or stay at school and study.....

But it's good because you get a lot of time to study or catch up.....Or if you're tired......to have a rest and then normally continue with work......its awesome.:)

Most of the time theyre spent on chatting and making crude jokes with me friends, and the rare chance of study.

My free periods were best allocated in yr 11. One on monday morning and one on tuesday morning, so I can sleep in on both days, and another one last period of friday, meaning I get an early weekend:). The rest is mixed in the middles, but it's still awesome. Yr 12 still okay, less sleep in but acceptable. Uni sucks.

I get 200 mins a week.. 5 x 40 min periods.
Mondays I sleep in..:)
Other times I just catch up with minor homework, like maths exercises, chem or bio sheets. Nothing major, and don't really 'study' because I type up all my notes on the computer. Gotta love free's.

So how many do you have each week?
What do you do during them?
How long do they last for?

Well im doing 13 units (ext maths), and I currently have 50 minutes worth of free periods every week and I personally do nothing during my free periods. It's just the whole essence of being at school and finally getting "free" time. Which in my brain is basically the equivalant of not doing work. I should be studying, but who can really be bothered...
>>12units

>>4 periods for week A
3 periods for week B

>>50minutes

>>open the book & sleep :devil:
