Is the quarter system at UCD really that bad?

I need to submit my SIR by tomorrow and I am leaning a little toward Berkeley after remembering that UCD has the dreaded quarter system and also because according to ratemyprofessors.com the “hardness” of professors isn’t all that much different between UCD and Cal.

So I love the area around UC Davis. However the quarter system scares me. I am used to the semester system as a transfer, I am a student that often flips through textbooks and gets a little upset when an interesting chapter is skipped, and I have a tendency to be overwhelmed easily.

UC Berkeley intimidates me in other ways such as how crowded it is.
