<p>I’ve never really understood why units in a quarter system are worth less than units in a semester system for the same course. For example, isn’t calculus A at a UC the same course as 1st year calculus at a community college on the semester system? Perhaps I am mistaken?</p>
<p>Isn’t the quarter system more difficult because courses move at such a high pace?.. Shouldn’t the units be the same or worth more?</p>
