    In my school the maximum you can have in a class is 24. Though alot of LC classes have less. Subjects like home ec. only have about 6.

    My smallest class was Physics with only 7 people in it. My largest started off as being honours maths, with about 35 which had been reduced to 15 by LC time. My largest class otherwise was Irish I think, about 25-26 students.

    In my school if the class numbers get too big they just tend to make up another class - does that not happen in most other schools? Like the only subjects that there is one class for are the ones that fewer people take like Home ec, physics, art, music, ag. science etc. Whereas because lots of people wanted to do chemistry in my year they made up 2 classes.

    The lowest is 16 in my Physics class (although there are two classes in the year) and the highest is DCG with 28 people. Other classes are pretty full aswell but the numbers dropped by at least one or two because of the people who went to private schools for the LC!
