[quote=Anonymous]This question surprised me. I went to UChicago for grad school and it was just different, but fine. I think each quarter was about 10 weeks (so only 3 quarters in a normal school year, not 4 because the 4th is summer). It worked fine for me. It didn't give me time to procrastinate, which was a big habit for me in high school and college when the end seemed so far away. Because 10 weeks is an amount of time when I can see the end coming, it was a manageable horizon to plan my work and my life. It also didn't let me get bored because you were onto a new subject in 2.5 months. I have no complaints about the quarter system.[/quote]
