semester or quarter

<p>i need opinions. which do you think is better, going to a college where its school calendar runs by semesters or quarters</p>

<p>semester, quarter is too intense if you ask me</p>

<p>I think it depends on what you want. With semesters, you take less classes, you have a longer time in the class, which is good in that you can really intensely study something for an entire semester or bad because you're stuck in a class you don't like for half the year. Exams come up less often. </p>

<p>With quarters, you're taking less classes at once, they are more intense- you don't have time to screw up. Exams will come flying at you. Get classes you don't like done with. </p>

<p>Personally, where I'm going, Case western, I'll be on semesters. My biggest worry with quarters is the exams.</p>
