[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Quarters are tough academically - there is literally no downtime, since a 9-week quarter of 4 classes includes, per class: 1-2 midterms, a final paper or exam, quizzes and homework... so they are always studying for something. It was easier when the quarters were 11 weeks, [b]but at Chicago they have been shortened to 9 weeks.[/b] I wish my kids had time to just hang out in the grill and be carefree and not focused and directed. [/quote] 9 weeks of classes followed by a review period and then exam week at U Chicago. Best system ever in order for students to remain engaged and busy.[/quote]
