“Letters and Science W1 is a summer online course that provides an introduction to the intellectual landscape of the College of Letters & Science and gives you a head start on your education and your connections with both students and professors. You will meet guest speakers and faculty members from over twenty departments who will deliver mini-lectures on fascinating topics ranging from earthquakes to the sense of touch and from the root causes of poverty to the philosophy of science. This course can help you discover what your passion is at Berkeley.” Is it worth taking?
I’m not sure what you’re asking, since the course is free if you pass. So in that sense, yes, it’s worth it. Are you asking if it’s worth your time?
From the description, it seems most useful to students undecided on their majors, but even those who are pretty sure of their majors may find it useful in helping them later choose topics outside of their majors to explore (with their breadth requirements and free electives).
@ccmthreetimes ya is it worth the time?
