Columbia vs Berkeley?

<p>Workload comparison for history or math.</p>

<p>bump bump bummp</p>

<p>I'm a history major at Cal but I couldn't give an accurate workload comparison as I have never spoken with a Columbia student on the matter. I can give you an example of my workload last semester. I took two Upper Division history courses (Irish History and British History). I read 13 books between both courses. I averaged from between 6-800 pages of reading per week (including research). In the Irish History course, I wrote 10, 12, and 15 page papers and for the British History course I wrote a weekly thesis and opted to write a term paper of 25 pages. For the Irish History course I took one midterm essay exam and one final exam (3 hours on one question - no options). For the British History course I took one midterm exam and my paper replaced a final. Now all we need is for a Columbia student to chime in for a comparison.</p>

<p>Irrelevant question. Your workload is pretty contingent upon the professor and their personal preference and not necessarily the school.</p>

<p>no reason to bump...</p>

<p>wow where are the columbian students?</p>

<p>^^^</p>

<p>They are in Colombia, eating coca leaves.</p>

<p>Maybe you should post on the Columbia forum? Common sense, my friend.</p>

<p>Columbia students probably have better things to do with their time. Public school students like me, on the other hand, live for this stuff. lol</p>
