[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What do your kids think of the quarter system at places like UCLA, Stanford, Northwestern, UChicago, Union College, etc? Con: fast paced, so assessments come up quickly. Schedules not great for summer internships. Can’t study abroad at other programs easily. Pro: more classes absorbs a low grade in to GPA more easily. More classes allow opportunities to try out different subjects. Easier to double major. Get out of a bad class more quickly. [/quote] Why are some still on a quarter system? Back in 20th century Univ of WA, OR, Oregon State has quarter systems. You started classes just as the miserable rain started and end the school year when the rain ended leading into beautiful summers/break.[/quote]
