I'm Female, 18 , 5'5, 139lbs,

I get up rush around my house to get ready.
Take a 10 minute walk to school, I change classes 8-9 times a day so I would be walking to my other classes, each a couple of minutes walk from eachother. For Lunch i normally walk around school with my friends for an hour. Walk the 10 minutes home. I walk my dog everyday for about 20 minutes evening.

So would i be sedentary or lightly active?
Thanks for the insight :)

    I would say, lightly active. You walk approx. 40 minutes a day, not counting your time between classes. Even though it's broken into different time slots, it still works out to 40 minutes of walking.
