You make it sound as if you don't WANT to be in the physics lab ... so that's the part I don't quite understand. But then, when it comes to physics, maybe I AM a freak, or is that called geek today? ("nerd" was already replaced when holywood started to make movies around them)
Maybe you're right that you took too many classes NOW, but do you have the option to stal your studies? Most of us don't have the option to go on studying for years, not at uni-level: it's just too expensive NOT to have a real income. (What you earn now, on +- little jobs, all goes to your "fundamental needs", no?)
As much as I understand that "too many classes on one day" is really a problem, part of it is up to you, though.
Are you allowed to SKIP class? Carefully NOT skipping those where you get a real teaching professor is an art too. I didn't learn it in time, so during college days I did spend some time in "boring lectures". But then, when I figured out how to choose, it was wellworth it. Wouldn't have skipped the "labs" though, not because most of them were "mandatory" labs, but because almost all of them were FUN to figure out how to do it.
Only "required labs" in chemistry could be boring: if you get too many hints to make things work, it becomes more like "replicating a recipe" than "real cooking". (Well, for chemistry one may need this detail of course: a little bit too much of "this" makes the whole room stink) |
