<p>Hmm, I didn't realize. Maybe we do it that way because most freshmen have already been exposed to differential/integral in high school in one form or another.</p>
<p>i'm on the quarter system and i think we get fewer classes than semester schools. nearly all classes are 5 units, so 3 classes is a full load. each term is 10 weeks plus finals week. it goes by fast, but i like it this way.</p>
