<p>I'm curious about the various areas of the core, and how best to fill those areas.</p>
<p>What is the best social sciences sequence? What sequence did you take and how did you enjoy it? What was the reading list? Who/How was the professor? Is it true that all of the soc sequences begin with a study of Marx and Weber?</p>
<p>The University of Chicago Course Catalog gives the following social sciences sequences:</p>
<p>SOSC 11100-11200-11300. Power, Identity, and Resistance
SOSC 12100-12200-12300. Self, Culture, and Society
SOSC 13100-13200-13300. Democracy and Social Science
SOSC 14100-14200-14300. Mind
SOSC 15100-15200-15300. Classics of Social and Political Thought</p>
<p>If you have the time to spare (or just don't want to study for finals), feel free to describe the reading and writing input of each course, and the general feel of classes.</p>
<p>Also, I struggled to find past posts comparing the core courses, so links would be nice and will be added here:</p>
