<p>Story is, my transfer credits are having me suffer from credit deficiency in the general education requirements (for engineering) and I need an extra course within any of the social sciences, humanities, and general elective courses to finish it off. Any suggestions? The only reason I ask is because someone on this board (I believe AliAngel) suggested AR100 with Professor Saturno, which has turned out SOOOOO awesome for me. </p>
<p>I have been thinking about SMG SI 480 (The Business of Technological Innovation)- which seems like a fun course, but ratemyprofessor.com has no information on that teacher. Nor does it have information on a lot of my teachers for that matter V_V… </p>
<p>I ask for an easy/fun course because I will be taking some really challenging courses next semester, and with 18 credits (including this one)- I don’t know if I can pull it off >_<. Thanks for anyone who can help (I realize there are a lot of prospective frosh right now who might need more help than I do)</p>
<p>haha yes i did suggest ar 100. 2 other easy courses are ps243 with grant and ps 251 with shim (both have no discussions). however, the one with shim is like a comedy class and he is hysterical so you’d have way more fun with that one. both only test on their lecture notes so you don’t need the book either.</p>
<p>Oh darn - I would love to take those classes but I don’t have PS 101 (since that is a prerequisite) =(. Would have loved to take Psychology and Learning</p>
<p>I’m not sure if you want to / can take such a high level SMG class. </p>
<p>Isn’t SI a strategy course? If you want to find teacher info for SMG courses, smgnet (again, I’m not sure if non-SMG students can get on, you can ask a friend in SMG or I can even do it for you and post it here lol) offers even more teacher ratings through the SMG teacher evaluation system. I wasn’t even aware students not in SMG could take classes in SMG w/o SM299? </p>
<p>Easy classes: CFA AR180 (Graphic Design) - I took this sophomore year, spring. It was really the easiest A I’ve gotten in my life lol, 3 hours a week, no homework ever, basically you draw circles on a screen during class and work on your own project. </p>
<p>Heard a science class called Beaches and Shores (where you really just learn about beaches and shores) is pretty easy too.</p>
<p>PY545 quantum physics for blood relatives of Einstein wasn’t bad. prof sucks though.</p>
<p>well ps 101 was fun too if you take it with shim, grant, or a couple other professors.</p>
<p>Yea - I went with PS 101 since I hear thats not bad </p>
<p>The SMG course is directly related to engineering and its a new course. I don’t know how high a level it is, but it was on the engineering web page - but you need approval. Looked fun - but has an absurdly bad timing (Fridays from 12-3) which is kind of hard to schedule in.</p>
<p>Adding to my thread - I have another question. I kinda got screwed over for registration because 1. I am a freshman and 2. I have a last BU ID digit ending in 9 >_<. So I go dead last out of everyone. </p>
<p>Will I be able to get all of my classes? Disregarding the fact that two classes I take have a required lab (which makes things REALLY hard to plan for - Physics and Chem II), in total I am taking 18 credit hours. Any suggestions on what I should do if there are scheduling conflicts? It was hard preplanning on the classes that already exist…</p>
<p>go to your professors personally and, especially for large lectures, most of them will sign you in. u have to get a form from the registrar’s office, fill out the info, have the prof sign and return the form.</p>
