Hi,

1. "on Tuesday night, Wednesday morning and Thursday night",

2. "on Tuesday and Thursday night and Wednesday morning".

It depends on the context. In a context of trying to plan your activities sequentially for the next few days, #1 is probably better.

So, look at your context.

Hi,

In this case, which one is better?

There's not much difference. I suggest this.

I came back to school for xx courses each week on Tuesday and Thursday evening and Wednesday morning.
