re: What was the worst, hardest class you had in college?

Hardest for me was chemistry. I thought it would be fun, it was fricking math.

Strangest was sociology class dealing with deviance. I was the only dude in class and my professor was a witch. It was like going to the "Men haters" club every class.

Hardest - For me it's a tie between Organic Chem 2 and Comparative Anatomy. International Tax in law school was a close third.

Worst - Microbiology. Teacher gave weekly multiple choice tests and often had multiple answers that were right. If you didn't pick the one he expected it was wrong even if the answer was correct. The quizzes had a high percentage impact on grade.

Elementary Calculus was another one that killed me. Was trying to get a minor in Math (wothless I know) and needed a 4000 level math. My brain just didn't think the right way apparently.

Calc III

The teacher was incredibly smart and maybe a bit too advanced to be teaching. The entire semester was theorems and definitions with maybe 1-2 example problems worked out every third class if he had time...

We didn't know what to study.

I had similar problem with Math 1552 (Calc 2). The first few weeks, a TA was teaching. He was Asian and could barely speak English. Then when the actual teacher started he was German and had a heavy accent. Could hardly understand him as well. I think I wound up with a C only because I couldn't understand the teachers that well.

Where did you take classes in Old English and Old Norse? And do you have any notes from them you wouldn't mind sharing?
