thx. :smoking:


id rather do quarters cus then you get a break in between each. Im usually burnt out towards the end of the semester so lil breaks would be great.

[§ȱʠ€ʠἰḉȁƗ€ᶑ®]

having semesters are fun, aside from the dry periods.

[hobbz]

lol...hell naw...it's Lil Boosie....I'mma broke college student n I'm not gonna waste the money I got on his sry ass...I'm missin out on the partyin though

:laugh: yeah man, usually after concerts you can look foward to the after events.


the quarter system goes like this:

3 quarters a school year.
15 Credits a quarter = 3 classes.
45 credits a year.
(You have the option of overloading and taking over 15 credits as well- they don't recommend it)

[elazy88]

I thought all schools have semesters

yeah man, it's nice cuz after the 1st quarter, i got winter break. after 2nd quarter i got spring break. after 3rd quarter, i got summer :smoking:

the only bad thing is, the classes are difficult & crammed because we gotta learn everything in 9 weeks.

having semesters are fun, aside from the dry periods.

yeah, but we get our share of dry periods too . :(

[elazy88]

I would like that. I work much better under pressure. I tend to bomb most test and stuff first half of semester and then end up trying to pick it back up towards the end. Unless its an art class. Which would explain my up and down GPA :laugh:

yeah see heres the thing though, you gotta make sure you capitalize on every exam/test you have on the quarter system cuz you don't have many chances to make up for previous tests you did poorly on.

[elazy88]

yeah see heres the thing though, you gotta make sure you capitalize on every exam/test you have on the quarter system cuz you don't have many chances to make up for previous tests you did poorly on.

yea n most professors dont give h/w...it's like 4 tests...1 midterm and then the final...u gotta do good on that...that was my problem my first year...I just b.s but now I b on my skoo work

[F_Mercury]

Shit, if it was a specialized college and I was just taking art classes I'd graduate top of my class. But the system doesn't work like that :smh:

yeah see heres the thing though, you gotta make sure you capitalize on every exam/test you have on the quarter system cuz you don't have many chances to make up for previous tests you did poorly on.

Yea which is why I want a quarter system. It would kind of be easier for me because I've got such a long semester I tend to slack off A LOT. If it was shorter I would know I gotta get such and such done ASAP. When the pressures on I'm all for it.

[DArena]

gotta do some papers.....:weed:

[elazy88]

I swear the system and semesters sound alike to me...do you have 2 take 15 hours in the system???

[elazy88]

gotta do some papers.....:weed:
about what?

[hobbz]

I swear the system and semesters sound alike to me...do you have 2 take 15 hours in the system???

15 credits/hours w/e Yeah.

15 Credits A Quarter. Each class = 5 credits/hours.

ps. some electives are 2-3 credits, so sometimes you can take up to 4 or 5 classes a quarter.

[hobbz]

[LRM]

^studying law - you're either have the chops or you don't. for the first two years i was completely lost. fucked around party too much. u really need to be disicplined. with the financial aid, u got to budget your time, law books are fucking expensive and with rent going up sky high its hard to afford it. when i turned 18 i chose not to buy a car. i bought an apartment instead. hopefully when i finish and with enough interest i can pay off my loan its gonna be one huge debt.

[hobbz]

shitty GA State

true.

my boy goes to Georgia Southern. he said a kindergartener couldnt even fail ova there. lol.
