| Quarter System
I noticed that Stanford, unlike most schools I've gotten into, has a quarter system. What is the difference between a quarter and a semester system? Are there the same number of midterms and finals in each? Do the majority of classes in the quarter system last more than one quarter, or do students switch classes like crazy? What are the pros and cons of the each system? Which one entails more work? Thanks.
I go to an English school, by the by. |
