Quarter Vs. Semester System

I’m on a quarter system, but I prefer the semester system (what my community college had) . I learn things at a much slower rate than my peers, so being on the quarter system doesn’t really help me at all, especially when it takes me a long time to grasp concepts that others immediately understand in lecture. When I was on the semester system, I could still focus on really old concepts and not fall behind at the same time. On the quarter system, if you’re not a quick learner and it takes a really long time for you to finally understand something, you’re gonna fall behind really fast.
