    Need another class -.-

    Sitting at 9 credit hours, need 12.

    There's nothing I need this semester. The only class I need left is Organic Chem II, which I can't take until after this semester's Organ Chem I.

    Need 12 credits for my financial aid.


    What are some easy classes I could take?

    I've already taken the basic easy/required shit

    American gvt, ethics, composition, psychology, etc.

    Most basic foreign language classes are pretty easyish (for me anyways). In my university they were 5 credits for almost any foreign language 1 and 2 classes then drops to 3 credits when you hit lvl 3. Can always look for an easy professor online and just take their course.

    Indeed, I'd recommend language classes as well, the lenient professors tend to be REALLY lenient, as long as you "try".

    Me...I would send you home crying in FRE101.

    Take something related to your future career or grad school? Or a research class if you're a biology major...

    You wouldn't know that though because you've demonstrably never picked up a book nor educated yourself on the matter. Let me guess, overweight housewife?

    tbh, since you need to take another class, do something fun. What's something you've wanted to try out that never got to?

    When I was in college I took random shit like choir, costuming (for theatre), Japanese, etc. to fill my spots when I had extra (I always wanted to be at 16-18 per semester). I always wanted to take the horseback riding one though but they always filled up fast. -.-;

    Hell, one semester they had a Science Fiction English class, and all we did was read Heinlein, Bradbury, Card, etc. then talk about them lol.


    Basically, you'd be surprised the kinds of classes that are there (even community), take advantage of something you've always wanted to do. Ever want to learn guitar? Maybe even take a basic cooking class (or something more higher to sex up the ladies with some "fine cooking")? Mmght as well use it for something fun to easy up the classes you have to take.

    I can double check for that, but my school is pretty low tier w/ grad school courses. Only basics from what I've seen.

    As a place holder, I signed up for world religions based on his rate my professors page. Will buy me some time and in case other shit fills up, I at least have this.

    Well, my school no longer has course books and online they're all sorted by their 3 letter short version, then you have to click that to another screen, and go to another screen after that to look at the courses. It's retarded. I really don't even know what's all available w/o clicking a few hundred links.

    I took one and we never read a single long or short story from Card or Herbert. I thought not only was that amazing enough, but we also had to read both Neuromancer and Snow Crash.

    if your school has a pre-music theory 1 course, def take that.. its so easy to pick up basic music theory, and it will give you a new perspective on music if you don't know much about it right now =)

    you may go to each department that you feels they may offer the courses which you interest in, and check their courses over there instead of checking in the registration page.

    do you have any other kind of hobby/interest? like sports, or music and etc. You can try to look in those department page to see if they offer any courses that interested you.

    ya we read Neromancer too. Only book I really didn't enjoy was Bellamy's Looking Backward, but at the same time, I'm glad I read it. The class really helped me get a good basis for some scifi, since I was only a fantasy reader at the time.
