From my experience, I would agree about Geo. But a friend of mine taking 1HU3 this term said it's pretty hard. It's the same prof (Mercier), so I'm not sure what might have changed. |

Oh, and also Music 1A03 and 1AA3 if you don't mind listening to classical music all the time.

Does English 2J03 have an essay component? I need an english with an essay component as a prerequisite for grad school, but 2J03 ( as well as 2R03 and 3F03) sound interesting, if they have the essay component

Looking at English courses, I found ENGLISH 2R03 - MONSTERS AND MAGIC, ENGLISH 3D03 - SCIENCE FICTION, ENGLISH 3F03 - THE FAIRY TALE, ENGLISH 3Y03 - CHILDREN'S LITERATURE really intersting.
Has anyone taken any of these courses?
What are they like? Did you find them as interesting as their names?

I took Fairy Tale this term. I put a review under Course Reviews on this site.
The course is interesting, and the breakdown is 2 essays and an exam. I liked it, but I think I was lucky with the TA who happened to mark my papers. A LOT of people were complaining about their essay marks. |

I can't think of an English/CSCT class without an essay component, same goes for History classes (War in the West 1850-1945 HIST 2S03 was a really good class)

Back to the OP, Eng 1A03 (I THINK that's the code, the Poetry one) was ridiculously easy this year.
