The university I attended required it. It actually depends upon the course. We have a maximum of 24 units per semester and 9 units in summer. For me, it was worth it. Besides, my summer classes usually involved trips outside of the university, still related to the lessons but with doubled. Think beach and overnights. :D

How come? In my country, you take them if you have failed in the regular semester or if you want to take the subjects in succeding levels in advance

Either accept the fact you need to take summer classes or take a different course.
