sorry if this is the wrong forum but I don't know where else to ask since /adv/ is too busy discussing how ronery they are to help.

I'm going to study biology at a university but they are on a trimester system (which I think is the same thing as quarters).

How is that different from the semester system? Is it harder or what?

nobody on /summersci/ has graduated high skool.

no reason to think they know anything about college.

>> No.3541056

basically, Semester = divided into 2, long classes

Trimester= often uses the summer divides year into 3.

be advised that most premeds never get in to med school. by most, i mean all. like 90%, look up the stats.

My cousin studies in that system as well. I think it's harder, but nothing you couldn't handle. At least there won't be any wasting of your time.
