How hard are classes at Penn?

<p>@extelleron HA! I agree with you so much about studying alone. I NEVER study in groups LOL. That results in disasters. However, I do have to learn to work with another student occasionally and make use of office hours because I believe that’s one of the reasons that caused me to do horribly in the Econ class.</p>

<p>Also, how would I know if a course is difficult or not? </p>

<p>@ThePariah Most of the time you can tell how difficult a course is by just looking at the course content [looking at the syllabus] or by knowing the general reputation of the class through word of mouth from older friends/etc. There is also a site called Penn Course Review where you can see how past students rated a class and a particular professor, in terms of course quality, instructor quality, and difficulty.</p>

<p>Thank you. I looked at the syllabus and briefly at the textbook and it wasn’t too difficult…it’s just the questions on the midterm…I also wasn’t able to ask others about this class so yea.</p>

<p>My class was taught by a PhD student so I couldn’t find his name on there. </p>
