Review Your Program
|
* Overall educational experience
Academic rigor, intensity, resources, etc. |
good, different from normal Middlebury classes. DIS did a pretty poor job of spacing out the due dates of big assignments. Most of my exams and papers were all on the same day. I took 5 classes there. Having 2 exams, a presentation, and a paper all due on one day was a lot. |
