Dunno if someone has mentioned ... but despite the complaints ... I still think Origins 2B03 is an excellent elective!

I agree, the course is extremely interesting and the midterm as well as the exam was ridiculously easy but they screw you over when marking the assignments. Take it at your own risk.

Does anyone know any courses without essays? I have anthro 1A03 on my schedule right now cause i thought itwas just one essay, but i just found out that there is 2 essays which combined are worth 40%, and i'm not that good at writing them, so is there any easy courses without essays, or just one essay worth 25% or less?

Econ 1B03 was easy for me and it has no essays.

Sorry, I only know science courses don't usually have essays. Other than that I'm not too sure.

It was really easy. It's a 12able course. I studied for the exam in a few hours and ended up with a great mark. Just make sure you really listen to the CD's to prepare for the listening portion of the tests, and the written answers and short answers are really easy if Dr. Sanden is teaching it as he did last year. I took both music 1A03 and 1AA3 and 1AA3 was easier.

Good electives are electives that you enjoy! If you don't like the subject it won't be easy and you won't do well in it. My advice is go with a subject that you enjoy and make that your elective.

agreed lol.... they might be easy if you dont do anything for the class....ever... and epicly fail

they DEFINATELY are not easy bird courses at all, there is a lot of material to cover every week with the lectures, and the exams are a lot to study for

the material is interesting, and theyre courses I would recommend, but not if your simply looking for easy electives
