UCR - TERM____ week sessions, ___ terms in a year.

• A. 3-week sessions, 12 terms in a year
• B. 4-week sessions, 13 terms in a year
• C. 5-week sessions, 14 terms in a year
• D. 2-week sessions, 11 terms in a year

Answer: (B)

Think of the year in terms of weeks and divide by how long each term lasts. If each term is four weeks and the year has about 52 weeks, then 52 ÷ 4 equals 13 terms in a year. That’s why four-week sessions with thirteen terms fit neatly. The other options would require partial terms or a different calendar alignment, which isn’t typical when a year is divided into equal term lengths.
