Summer school approximate exam dates
I checked on Mac's site that the last day of class for Term 1 (Spring/Summer term) is June 17. Does this mean that the final would take place within this date? I've seen a couple of posts saying that finals are held on the last day of class. I need to book a flight in advance. Can anyone confirm this please? I'm planning to take orgo if that helps.
Thank you (:

Do you notice your grades to be higher in summer school?

I would think that would be highly dependant on whether or not professors re-use questions from previous tests that you have access to, as well as your motivation, as well as the fact you're focusing on 2 courses instead of 4-6...

I'm gonna go ahead and say yes.

I believe the most amount of courses you can take per semester in sumer school is around 3 (correct me if I'm wrong) so considering how you have fewer classes, you'll have more time to focus on each course, which should result in you getting higher grades.

6 units per term.

You get to focus all your time on 1-2 courses (per term), but remember that everything is condensed into 6 weeks.
