    Daylight Savings

    So, like a good medical student I was procrastinating in my studying last night, so I called my mom. She asked me if we observe Daylight savings time in grenada, and I have no idea.

    Will we be setting our clocks back on March 11th???

    Happy studying to all!! Good luck on the midterms!!

    Nope, there is no DST here. Just to confirm what Artie said.

    One consequence of this besides having to adjust your calling times is if you watch any programming on TV.

    "Thirty percent of people surveyed say the hardest thing to do is to quit smoking, followed by saving for retirement. Those are the two hardest. Well, there’s an easy solution: Just don’t quit smoking and you don’t have to worry about retirement."

    First of all, Grenada doesn't do the daylight savings thing. Secondly, I think clocks move ahead an hour in US/Canada. Spring forward, Fall back?
    USMLE studying has me doubting even that though.

    It's a good question though and I recall many phone conversations with family where "What time is it there?" was often asked.

    Saora1 may be able to confirm this for us.

    You have to study to have study habits. I don't know what you're talking about.

    Technically that depends where you are.

    East Coast of the US will though.

    true...true(guess my bias is showing, oops!!!).

    GND will be one LESS hour ahead of the US, since they don't do DST.
