[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As someone who went to school on the quarter system and has taught at Unis with both quarter and semester—Quarters are the absolute best. Students take fewer courses so are more focused. If you love a subject you can take the next in the series; if you hate it you are almost done by the time you decide that. I wish way more schools were on quarters. [/quote] This -- I went to two colleges. One with semester and the other with quarters. Quarters are better. My kid is at a school on quarters. Sure, s/he left a little later than peers, but it was fine. Once they are in their second year of college and beyond, it doesn't matter much because many kids aren't coming home for the summer because of internships, etc. [/quote]
