more easy classes or fewer hard ones?

<p>more less-challenging classes or fewer more-challenging classes?</p>

<p>Fewer more-challenging ones. Next year I want to take 3 classes: physics, math, and a history of (mostly) Western thought. Sounds like heaven to me, and the units come out properly (to a normal courseload, on track towards graduation and all that), so I’m happy.</p>

<p>Take a mix of both. If you only take hard classes, you’ll feel like killing yourself. If you take too many easy ones, you’ll feel useless. I’d say go one-third easy/blow-off, one-third moderately hard, and one-third difficult. I’ve found this way works the best.</p>

<p>don’t assume you know how hard the class will be by the number in front of it</p>
