<p>I have an urge to point you to something really difficult and claim it’s easy, but that would be cruel. Take something you find interesting.</p>
<p>perhaps a better question is: what are some of the most interesting and enjoyable classes at berkeley?</p>
<p>Asian Studies and Film seem both equally interesting to me. I’m not too good of a public speaker nor am I a talented writer. Which class would I have an easier time in?</p>
<p>are english classes at berkeley easy? Im looking for a english class to satisfy my reading/compsition requiement part b</p>
<p>i have heard they can be pretty challenging (according to my friends)</p>
<p>yeah I’m worried about the english part b requirement too =/</p>
<p>Would it be advisable to take humanity classes on a pass/not pass grading scale?
I’m an engineering major and the engineering advisors said I could have this option for all humanity classes other than the english requirement. I was thinking that this might free up some more time for me to concentrate in the math and science courses without worrying about humanities screwing my gpa, but if humanities are an easy A, then I might want to take them for a letter grade.</p>
<p>Whether theyare an “easy A” depends a lot on the class, its demands, the prof/GSI, and you. You have a few weeks to decide if you want to take something pass/not pass or for a letter grade. </p>
<p>Film would probably make you think in a new way, concentrating on the visual. I think it’s a great skill to have, and many classes don’t teach it. Asian studies and film are broad topics, so the particular subject matter might change things. Also, the GSI/prof might change things a lot.</p>
