Where did you sit when you were in school?

[nanette1985]

This is from a discussion with my grandkids since school will be beginning soon.

 

[lxskllr]

Where I was told to sit.

 

[Broheim]

with my friends, usually somewhere in the back.

 

[Drako]

Where I was told to sit.

This - usually in alphabetical order. Most teachers have no imagination.

 

[brandonb]

We had assigned seats. In alphabetical order by last name. I was usually in the row closest to the door about 5 seats back. I always had Mary in front of me, and Carrie behind me in the required classes, only changed with electives. And yes I remember their names even though its been 20 years since I always had to see them all day for 4 years. (And Carrie was always behind me since Elementary since we went to the same Elemtary, Middle school, and High school)

Where I was told to sit.

Yep. My teachers were all different...sometimes it was a random assigned order, sometimes by alphabet. Sometimes we were allowed to choose each day so some days it would be front, some days middle and some days back.

 

[MontyAC]

Where the teacher said.

 

[dank69]

If given the option, in the back.

 

[purbeast0]

highschool, back.

college, front.

in college, when i realized i had to work A LOT harder than highschool, i started sitting in the front so it wouuld force me to pay attention.

 

[vi edit]

In the front because I had vision that was *just* bad enough to require glasses if in the back of the room but could manage without them if I sat in the front.

 

[Sonikku]

Right by the window. Just like every kid actor and anime character in history.

 

[zinfamous]

Is this a short bus question?

 

[BlitzPuppet]

Back, I was too tall.

 

[T_Yamamoto]

Depends who the teacher is.

If the teacher does their seating alphabetically, I'm usually in the back (last name starts with a Y), if the teacher doesn't care, I sit in the middle.

 

[Red Storm]

Depended on the class.

 

[leftyman]

usually on my ass.

 

[darkewaffle]

At the desk that had my name on it.

 

[waggy]

Front row. but then i had a bad hearing loss and had to.

 

[ThatsABigOne]

Front row because I wear hearing aids.

 

[brainhulk]

Me and my friends were called the back row rangers by my pharmacokinetics professor

When choice was given (high school), front or second row. College: 2nd row (if no one else was in the front row.)

Pretty strong correlation in numerous studies between where you sit & the grades you earn.
