I've had classes like that. Freshman year I had a two-hour block world history class at three in the afternoon on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. When it became inevitable that I would always sleep or draw through the whole class, I stopped going. I passed the class in the end, but just barely. If you're motivated enough to keep up with the material outside of class, you can afford to goof off a bit during lectures. I'm not really like that, at least ninety percent of the time. :/

I used to play violin and percussion in high school orchestra and band, respectively. I also played in college pep band and concert band during my first year. And I never learned how to sightread. I am an incredibly slow reader. I ended up memorizing all my music. It was pretty manageable for, like, bass drum, but I never really got a chance to develop as a violinist, even though I played for six years, because every time I practiced, I just focused on memorizing my music and didn't get a chance to work on my technique. It also doesn't help that I skipped sixth grade and missed the training year for middle school orchestra. :/
