Trimester Classes

<p>When filling out the Common Application question about my senior courses, I have to specify that my school is on the trimester system. The problem is that there is no way to say if a course is two trimesters long. I can say that it is in the second trimester, but that seems to imply that it is only in 2nd tri, especially because there is an option for both full year and 3rd trimester. I have three two trimester classes (AP Gov, AP Econ, and Psych) and not enough room to enter them each trimester by trimester as separate classes, so how do I go about entering my schedule? Should I round the two trimester courses to full year? Should I say they are second trimester courses? </p>

<p>You could list is as “Course Title (2 trimester)” or just put trimester down then write “see add. info” then write a quick explanation in that essay section. The adcom will have a copy of your transcript, so they’ll understand. </p>
