[quote=Anonymous]I went to Dartmouth, which is on the quarter system. I loved the quarter system as I only took 3 classes at a time. Also loved begin finished with fall papers/finals in early December and being able to have a real winter break (some semester schools have exams in January). At Dartmouth, internships were easy to get. I interned on Wall street for winter quarter and I had zero business knowledge or background and hadn't even taken one econ class in college. I knew people who got other coveted internships like interning at the white house during the school year as well. Another plus is that people don't like to miss out on too much on campus, but if you spend one quarter studying abroad, you miss out on only 1/3rd of the school year but get 10 weeks in a different country, so for me it was a win-win. Like the poster above, I was also able to try lots of different courses and double major.[/quote]
