Hi, I just started filling in my Common App, and everything went well (more or less) until the “course scheduling system”.
Now, at my school we study the same subjects all year long, so there aren’t specific semesters, trimesters or quarters
What should I do? It’s a required field otherwise I would just leave it blank
Thank you for your time!
So are you saying that you only get a final grade at the end of the academic year in each course, with no interim grades on a quarter/trimester/semester time frame?
Not exactly, we do have tests throughout the year in each subject.
Our academic year is divided in a trimester (mid September - December) and another five-month period (January - first days of June)
at the end of each period we get a final grade which is the average of the grades in that same period
I am bit confused about how to "translate"that
So, in the lexicon of American English, these are semesters; select that option on the Common App.
Great, thanks!
