Probably the computer science course dealing with PASCAL, which was already out of date at the time (mid to late 90's) but required for microbiology majors. Honestly it was harder than organic chemistry. Pascal was the only course that I shelled out the "Tutoring by Keith" money for, and I'm glad I did. Got a B.

I had no trouble with calculus. The course that gave me trouble was
Early American literature. The puritans sucked.

Are any undergrad courses really that hard?

Organic chemistry was tough, but honestly, if you study, you'll do well. Also, if you treat math and science courses as more than a "memorize this and regurgitate it on that" process, they become a lot easier to learn.

Some geothermal physics class. Someone said "I heard this was an easy 400 level class".

I walked into the first lecture. Literally didn't understand ANYTHING. Some numbers here, some words I've never heard of there, walked out after the class and promptly dropped it

Otherwise, OChem2.

Anything that required amortizing a bond and Internal Rate of Return.

That what you hire a number cruncher for.

Screw that shite.

Tear page in half. Put large booger on one page. Turn in along with other page.


Hardest class?

Qualitative data collection and quantitative analysis.

The guy made up the title for the class. He was a wierd little smack head who went to ucb.

Second hardest: philosophy 1001.

Bombed the first exam and then realized the guy just wanted you to expound. Got wildly drunk before the exam and wrote 3 bluebooks full of just nonsense. Made a 100.
