I had in-class exams at MIT that were up to 3 hours long. Take home would definitely have been nicer.

Could students use the bathroom during the exam? If not, sheesh it could hard to hold it when very nervous during a long exam!

I only recall some finals at MIT being that long. Which classes had normal exams that long?
reply
They were finals, not ordinary tests or midterms. Junior and senior year, I think one was Chemical Engineering, but I can't remember the exact name or number.

This year 6.7800 has a both 3h midterm and a 3h final, for instance. Wish us luck.

That would be this?

Or at least this year's version? If so, it looks like Course 6 hasn't gotten any easier over the years. Good luck!
