AVOID Humanities 2C03/CMST 2W03
Trust me, if you want a decent GPA, and if you want to take a course where you actually gain reasonable knowledge about something relevant, avoid this course. I made the mistake of taking it and highly regretted it. Was told it was a bird course and it would help with my GPA, but I was dead wrong.

I've gone though the same thing myself.

Unfortunately, everything depends on the prof who is teaching it, the material being taught, and your own personal strengths and weaknesses.

Hey scimea, I'm enrolled in that class too. I think it's 2 tests and a final exam. Koc taught last year and was supposedly easy. You can check out LL for copies of old tests and whatnot to see what to expect

See what we mean when some people do well in courses, while others don't?

Chad and Vlad are a perfect example of this.

I have the course next semester with RODDE, from Human 2C03. I need a high GPA and this is not a required course. I am in communications, good with words and speech but not with science and math. Any suggestions?

As long as it's not Prof. Koc. You can't understand her half the time, between her thick accent and her lack of basic grammar skills her sentences are all screwed up. The material itself was interesting, it was the prof that killed it for me.

What a perfect name for a bad professor.
