Easiest classes to fulfill divisional requirements

I'm a freshman at BU and an IR major. I'm doing divisional requirements and I have started thinking about how I will fulfill different subject requirements. I am using CL101 and CL102 to fulfill my humanities, and I really enjoy CL101 so far.

However, I am not such a big math/science person. I want to know what some of the easiest courses to fulfill the math/cs requirement and the natural sciences requirement (including an easy lab science) are. I'm not looking to challenge myself in these areas.

Also, I have credits from AP Calculus AB so I think that means I can complete the M/CS requirement with one semester of any level math/computer science class.

what I took

I was also a social science major and took two earth science classes (one with a lab and natural disasters). Can't say they were easy... people apparently failed in both classes, but the intro earth science classes have more manageable labs than say chemestry...

If you are good at math (AP calc) astronomy might be good too, but I heard it's more than just looking at stars

I took cs107 which involves almost no math and actually almost no computer programming. it's call computational systems...the prof is really cool and I thought the class was awesome. it's about how the brain, cells, etc etc can be considered computers
