Asking MIT Students If They Ever Sleep

Last week, I visited the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), to ask students about their sleep schedules, study habits, screen time, and more! Comment your thoughts below!!
Shoutout to Daena, Kenan, Aiden, Daniel, Jasmine, Chubbs, and Bethany for being in the video!! AND huge thank you to Kevin for filming!!
ALSO- thank you SO MUCH for all the love on my first Harvard video!

[@gomaamog4975]

First of all you are mixing everyones answers. Not all of them said they studied 6 hours. Not all of them said their screen time is 9 and half hours. Not all of them said they sleep 8h. But even if what they said was true, their screen time might be high because they use their phone to study as well. Not only that but they might use it in class or before sleep or during lunch, breakfast, dinner. So the total amount of time they use their phones gets to 9h.
