Yes you will make it, 10 minutes is a long time, I've had classes in ITB and then KTH before and I still made it. |

lol #firstyearproblems
1- It's not that far. It really shouldn't take you more than 10 minutes on foot.
2- It's not that big of a deal if you show up to class a couple of minutes late (as long as it's not mid-lecture). I've stayed behind a few times to talk to profs and ended up being a few minutes late to my next class, nobody really cares.
3- Calm down. This is really the least of your worries, believe me.

Oh man, I remember having to walk from TSH to ITB. Believe me, BSB to ITB is not a problem.

As others said it's definitely do-able. It took me maybe like 7 minutes tops. Only KTH/TSH/CNH is really worrisome, but even that is do-able in 10 minutes if you walk at a fast pace. Just don't linger after class for too long, sit near the doors and you shouldn't have a problem. Also, try to find side doors closer to your lecture halls so you don't get stuck when classes are getting in/out of the building.

^Also, I'd recommend a decent pair of winter boots for the snow/slush 
The walkways usually aren't too bad, but if you want to cut across the grass or something, boots will come in handy. Nobody wants to sit in class with wet feet! |

KTH basement to T-13 walk was evil, especially in the snow. Agh. I don't think I made it on time to that second class once... except one day when we got out a few minutes early, I ran to T-13, got there on time and learned that class had been cancelled that day [/facepalm]

Kth to Etb to Kth was evil
Thankfully after the first or second week they moved my class to Etb so only had to walk to Kth once, but regardless I was still always late to class

It's a bit of a walk, but 10 mins is more than enough haha.
(2-3 minutes to fight the student army zigzagging everywhere)

BSB to ITB should be less than five minutes. Worry about any cross-campus treks like TSH to ITB.
