How many seconds do we have at school if you get there in time?

It depends on what time your school day starts and ends at, but the typical school day is 27,400 seconds long, that's from 8:45 A.M. to 4:15 P.M. In a typical school year, you have 175-180 days of school, so if you were at school every day, you would have spent 4,795,000-4,932,000 seconds at school, total. In a school week of five days, you spend 137,000 seconds at school.

So, yeah, we spend much more of our lives at school than you'd think, considering there are 86,400 seconds in a day, and a good 1/3 of that is school, 1/3 for sleeping, and 1/3 for whatever else.
