An upper level finance class, put it off until my last semester, teacher was known to be a complete no showing pos, but gave absurdly hard tests after literally not covering any material. Almost everyone in the class was dumbfounded, he didn't curve either, before the final everyone I knew in the class was failing, but we all needed it to graduate. Final hard as frick as usual, guy strung us all out on the grade, told us we would find out if we passed if we got a diploma at graduation. He either passed us all and just wanted to be a dick, or by some miracle we made the grade needed on the test.
But yeah, frick that guy.

The only class that I completely gave up on was Intermediate Accounting 2. Not that it was an exceptionally rigorous class, I just wanted to bleed out from my eyeballs trying to study for that comprehensive final. I think I walked out of the test, happily took my D, and got on with my life. Didn't hinder graduation in the slightest.
Only class in my life that I failed (D). It was for the best though. Finally convinced me that I hated accounting and wanted out. Switched to finance and actually graduated a semester earlier than I would have if I stayed in Acct.

I took every class he taught. He was also one of my recs for law school apps. Dude was fricking awesome.
Sports law was great. Basically a history class of the 3 major american pro sports leagues. His classes were easy A's (multiple choice and he'd go through the test question by question the day before the test) and they were really interesting and useful. Gives good insight into how the legal system works for lay people.

I still give that GOAT nod to Sauley but Breaux made B-Law class pretty entertaining and he made that class easier than it could have been.
Was in there with both McClures, Tomassie, and Jamal Hill(2nd string LB).
They obviously knew to take his class as well.

I saw it offered and jumped on it. I was in his FIRST Sports Law class. It was a bit unorganized obviously but was interesting stuff. Class was PACKED.

Took all of them as well, very interesting lectures that actually made you want and look forward to going to class. Only other classes I had like that was the American Histories, I think it was Sells maybe and Outland ? Can't remember exactly, but Outland was the older guys protege so they taught exactly the same.

Yea I pretty much based my entire schedule around Sports Law the semester I took it because I knew I wanted to take that class more than any of my major classes lol.
ETA: Best part of my class was it was during the 2011 NFL lockout, and the NBA lockout was right around the corner so it was even more topical than it would have been normally.

Yeah, that damn organic chemistry lab with Davila really ate my lunch. I was always great with chemistry and, for whatever reason, just had some kind of cognitive inability to deal with that class. It was the only class I ever had to retake since I got a 78 the first time around and needed at least an 80. I have no idea why that class (and not some of the objectively more advanced ones) gave me such fits. I think I studied harder for that second lab final than I did for the bar exam.

Sports Law is such a pointless class, the only time it comes in handy is bringing up "did you know's" while bullshitting with friends about sports
I took it with a woman, don't remember her name, but she split us in to groups of 4, 2 representing team and 2 representing player, and had us negotiate a contract. Whoever got closer to their number got a higher grade. That was very fun and interesting.

I seem to recall you and Marlon checking every section of any given class to find the easiest teacher.

I had several in ME that pushed me to the limits, but never contemplated quitting. I felt like I could do it, but sometimes, I screwed myself with going out, etc.. Once I cracked down, I knew I could get through the classes.
But Math 4031 (I think) was the one class that I still to this day have no idea what I was doing. It was an Advanced Calc class where you just wrote proofs. I could understand the proofs when the teacher would explain it, but had no idea how to formulate them from scratch. It's kind of like reading a definition in the dictionary compared to writing the definition. Except there's only one set of words written in a particular order that is correct. You basically had to know how to word it (in math language) perfectly. Good thing was the class was for those planning to go to grad school for math. I think the teacher recognized those who were in the class as a technical elective and went easy on us. I somehow walked out with a C and left more than 50% of all tests blank

The trick with chemistry is to treat it like learning a new language.

Both of my Physics classes. I guess the force just wasn't with me.

Advanced Accounting with Dave "The Dick" Vicknair. Boring subject (consolidated returns) with the worst teacher at LSU. He was "let go" the year after I took the course due in large part to his abysmal student reviews.

Production sucks. Just took a 4 question test. Two were multiple choice questions worth 45% of the grade. Missed both, banking on that 35 point curve
