<p>Americans and the Global Forest (L&S Discovery Course)</p>
<p>These are each 4 units and will knock off all of my 7 breadth requirements. Will the amount of reading be too hard? What do you guys think. Also, the only other requirement I believe I have left would be the Reading and Comp. B (I'm still waiting for the AP score, though I doubt I got a 5). Should it stay as is, or move some to second semester, any help is appreciated.</p>
<p>Well that puts a damper in my plans...I will probably take the RCb class and something else instead of some of those. Should of read the fine print...only one requirement knocked off per class o_0</p>
<p>Astronomy is the best class on campus (and relatively easy) and I'm sure the Global Forest one is fine too. Even if the other two classes are really hard, which they are probably not, that's a good schedule.</p>
<p>ey drab, how much do you know about the LS R44 class? reading amount? difficulty in grading? good professors?
Im thinking about taking it to knock out the RC and a breadth</p>
<p>It's five units, it's a lot of reading, and you can find syllabi and stuff on the berkeley.com by searching for it (western civ, l and s r44, ect). It has stuff from previous years. The profs, according to rate my professor.com, are supposed to be good, and some say they can be boring, or one of them can (I forget which). It has two professors. It can fulfill either half of the R and C requirement and either the hsitorical studies, social and behavioral, or arts and literature requirements. It's supposed to go more in depth than your average intro course. Grading difficult probably depends largely on your GSI (for the R and C parts of the course- it does have two sections per week). Reading lists are available online for previous years, and as classics and this course hasn't changed too much over the past couple years, I imagine the reading list will be largely the same.<br>
