<p>What's the difference between the two and which one do you prefer? I'm aiming for Haas...</p>
<p>neither .</p>
<p>alright…which courses are easiest to fulfill the R&C requirement?? thanks</p>
<p>Depends on the teacher who’ll be grading your work and how interested you are in the readings/topic/etc.</p>
<p>so, i have come down to three choices…film, asian american studies, and comparative lit…which one is the easiest out of the three?</p>
<p>Asian or film</p>
<p>One of my friends took film last semester and it seemed pretty tough. Can you get into german, scandinavian, or italian? those are the easiest.</p>
<p>german and scandinavian are closed…only italian. are you sure italian is easy, and film is difficult?</p>
<p>and what about native american studies?</p>
<p>My rule of thumb when it comes to fulfilling R&C requirements is this,</p>
<p>Don’t take any R&C class that sounds like an english class,
ie. Rhetoric R1A/B, Writing R1A/B, English R1A/B
unless you are really good in English or would really like to learn
(despite taking a blow to your GPA)</p>
<p>I took Theater R1A and History of Art R1B, and neither of them were easy,
but at least not as bad as the classes listed above</p>
<p>I’ve also heard that the R_A/B of culture studies
- namely, Italian studies, Russian studies R5B, are the easiest R&C classes to take </p>
<p>It would be the easiest for you, I think,
if you took something related to what you are passionate about.</p>
<p>I had to work my butt off to get an A- in Theatre R1A-- but I think that was only b/c I never really understood/enjoyed reading Shakespeare (which we did A LOT of).</p>
<p>I think it’s best to choose a R&C class based what subject(s) interests you (eg. Asian American Studies, French, German, Southeast Asian Studies, Art History, Anthropology, etc). You’ll do a lot better in a class where you are actually interested in the material/readings as opposed to a class where you couldn’t care less. I’m taking Scandinavian R5B this summer. The class deals with Norse mythology… which I find to be a lot more interesting than Shakespeare.</p>
<p>oh crap. So I’m in FPF, should I not take an english class? I took the AP lit exam and I don’t know if I’m gonna need one or two classes. Pickaprof and campusbuddy say most people get A’s in the English R1A/B classes though… is it safer to just put it off?</p>
