Class Suggestions for a Freshman?

<p>Does anyone have any suggestions on what classes to take as a freshman? I'm looking to major in Political Science with a concentration in International Relations with a potential double major in German. I'll have lots of my liberal artsy Gen Eds fulfilled, but I need to still take the math/sciencish reqs.</p>

<p>Any suggestions? Any truly amazing teachers that I should try to get?</p>

<p>Please see my response on a different thread (Transfer Student + Schedule). A lot of those course suggestions (and prof suggestions) will apply to you as well.</p>

<p>Klimko for Statistics (MATH 147) is the best way to get rid of your math gen ed. Very easy class. You’d have to try to fail his class.</p>

<p>Not too sure for science. I would stray away from general biology, chemistry, or physics. Those classes are hardcore and are really excessive for someone not majoring in the sciences.</p>

<p>I would’ve recommended Lockard for Microeconomic principles (ECON 160), but since you’re planning on political science, you won’t need this class for your Social Science gen ed.</p>

<p>if u don’t like sciences, take astr 114 and 115 for the lab credits (gen-ed). it’s easy to get at least an A-. </p>

<p>and as for “G” gen-ed, i’ve heard geog259 is a very easy course (but also really boring). </p>

<p>also, most freshmen take writing 111 so u should definitely put that into consideration.</p>
