Default How long are your school quarters or semesters?

Do you have quarters or semesters at your university/college?

We have 10-week long quarters, followed by finals week. I couldn't imagine having to put up with an annoying professor for an entire semester.

How many credits are your classes?

Mine are usually 4 credits.

I'm on the same sort of schedule as you are one_luv. And I do like the quarters better than the longer semesters. My first BA was allllll semesters and there were some profs that I was more than happy to be finished with and some of the classes just seemed to drag on and on and on.

I take as much as I can online, so I go at my own pace there. I hate being in a room and cooped up. I have ADHD and that way if my mind starts to wander, I can do something else for a while.

You guys are lucky. I'm on the semester schedule, so it's about 15 weeks (3-4 months) long. Ugh, I hate it. Thank God this is my last semester. But then it's off to grad school.
