@cashmeredreams has a point, it depends on the person. I personally think that we must sleep between 8-9 hours a night. And it it is good to make a nap after having lunch every day if it's possible. This helps us to be active during the day.

Well, it's always different. It depends on how I feel. When I'm very stressed, I tend to sleep more during the day. And other days i dont have a choice on how much i sleep because school.

This does vary person to person, usually though a person should get between 7-8 hours a night, maybe even 9! But I have known some people that rely off 3-4 hours. I myself need about 12 hours to even feel brand new again and ready for a new day. They say 7-8 hours (From what I've read in articles and such) Best of luck though, get as many Z's as you can! :)

It depends on age. if you are 16 and under i recommend around 8. 17 and up can have about 6-7.
that is a realistic answer though.
the proper recommended amount is 9-10 for ages 15 andunder. Also, 7-8 For 17 and up.

Please, please try to get 9 hours and 15 minutes every night at least! Especially if you are a student... when you learn new things at school, your brain has it freshly stored in your memory. When you go to bed, all of what you learnt has to be processed in a certain amount of time. So if you sleep late, your brain has less time to process all that information!

You need eight hours of sleep in a night. Well, something that I heard on the radio was seven hours and forty-six minutes.
