Psych 2b03 or Psych 2h03?
I'm a future second year student in honors biology. I'm looking for interesting electives and I've come across these two psychs. I'm already taking psych 2c03, and I'm debating between these two for my last spot. I really enjoyed psych 1x03 and the topics related to social psychology (hence the reason I'm taking 2c03) and I initially thought of 2h03 because I enjoyed topics such as classical conditioning. I also considered 2b03 as it is a prerequisite to positive psychology. Any opinions about these courses? I would like an easy course but I care for interest more.

Psych 2B03 was pretty easy and I found it interesting, you just go into detail about the different schools of psychology and what they think personality is in each school so if you think you'd be interested in that, go for it.

I haven't taken Psych 2H03 yet, planning to take it next year but I think it sounds probably a bit more interesting than personality. But I'd still definitely recommend personality, I really enjoyed that course and Dr. Day ftw

I haven`t taken 2h03 yet, but 2b03 was pretty interesting. There are two 30% midterms and the exam. Every evaluation is multiple choice, though . However, I found the textbook to be kind of boring. Most of the time I still had to guess for his questions based on the text.

2H03 can be kind of tricky and the questions are similar to those in Psych 1X03, where it often seems like there is more than one correct answer. 2B03 is easier to do well in, due to the quiz bank, and the prof is really good. I'd say that they're equally interesting, but 2B03 is easier to do well in. Either is a good choice though.
