Lectures/Seminars vary in length...for me, they're usually one hour each. Practical classes are longer.

The most I'm in is 3 hours a day.

In for a whole day ideally. On average 2 hours teaching a day. The rest is spent in the library/getting lunch/meetings.
Most of the time is spent in a pub. Ideally.

As to the thread title... completely varies between courses, where you are and what level you are at (and probably other factors too) I'd imagine that most fell between 45minutes and 3 hours though.

My lectures are all about an hour long.

Just worked out my hours for this term (only starts on Monday, we've just had exams)

There are twenty hours per week in lectures and examples classes (examples classes vary in structure between being similar to a lecture and more informal sessions where you can ask questions)

The most I have in one day is 6 hours, 5 hours of (different) lectures and then an examples class after an hours break.
My lectures used to be two hours with a break half way through about long enough to feed one's addiction (ciggy, chocolate bar, coffee etc.). Seminars were about an hour. I've gone to graduate seminars that are over two hours long, although they always tend to give you free coffee and biscuits at the start and half way through. I have a funny feeling that I will need to get a caffeine IV drip before long.
