usually, summer is more condensed, more material in less time, but it's usually chill

easiness depends on teachers, but I hate taking math over the summer. Lectures are 3 hours long and everything is rushed.

Took two last summer. Mad easy. My boy is taking a video class I took over the summer and he says there's a ton more material to cover. I got an A and anA- respectively. Also, I was in Baltimore with only a few of my boys so going to class wasn't a chore. I was literally so bored that I'd want to go toclass.

I took Calculus in Maymester (Its 12 days for 3 hours a day)

I thought it was going to be hard as hell....It was real easy..the professor showed us what we mainly need to know...we had like 5 tests so you can mess up andstill get a good grade....the longest we stayed was like 2 hours.. It was

when I was going to college I usually took summer classes cause it was much cheaper and the classes were a joke

Not easier for the classes I took. Classes are usually scheduled for 3 hr block, but usually get out around 30 mins prior.

No. A lot of people in college take summer/winter courses so they can get out in 4 yrs or less since doing the normal Fall and Spring justdon't cut it for getting out in 4 yrs flat anymore at most universities.

I'm taking two of my capstone classes this summer because the workload is supposed to be easier. If I took it during the regular semester, I would have totype four 30+ page reports and I hear it's cut in half because of shortened classes.
