Tips & common mistakes

Quick tips

1 min = 60 s. 60 min = 1 h.
Use min (not m, which is metre) to avoid confusion.
Standard calendar software uses 5, 15, 30, 60 min blocks.

Avoid these

Writing 1:30 meaning 1 minute 30 seconds versus 1 hour 30 minutes — always add units.
Using "m" for minute in scientific context — m is metre; use min.
Over-estimating minute durations — 5 min feels longer when stressed.
