| Yea, I completely agree with your observances of the transitional period, and the incline in work, between a CC and UC. And, I will admit, the way I study is many times overkill for my classes (one time giving a 45 minute presentation on urbanization, while everyone else gave a 5 minute presentation ranging from otters to their favorite type of car --not trying to brag, just illuminating the difference in student effort at CC), but I find the method I currently employ much better and less stressful than crashing, which sometimes was requisite given the amount of work 7 classes brought. Also, I don't have any experience with the quarter system, so I cannot comment on the immediacy of studying it brings.
And my major is polisci --gladly not econ, haha. |
