<p>You go to IVC right? Take PSYC1 or any psychology class with Dr. Kari Tucker. I took PSYC2 with her; she was a great teacher and the class wasn't difficult at all.</p>
<p>As for material in psych and pol sci is all very intoroductory. Does not go into depth at all. FOr pol sci it's all very basic common knowledge crap, how congress, senate, election all work, etc. Psych introduces basic concepts of cogntition, sensation, development, etc. </p>
<p>I found both interesting. It's the science classes which i hate lol.</p>
<p>"It really depends on the teacher. But from my experience...</p>
<p>inttorduction to music was a piece of cake.
and psychology is an interesting subject that i would take.</p>
<p>i would stay away from anything HISTORY related...cuz i dislike memorizing all those ....history dates."</p>
<p>You get a "Bah!" I don't think history professors are particuarly concerned with memorizing dates, they find understanding the major issues behind the events important, your writing skill counts too.</p>
<p>True about the history. The history professors I have are all much more interested in your reading and writing skills than they are in your ability to memorize dates. As for easy classes, that depends on the teacher. Ask around.</p>
<p>fei... too bad Tucker isn't teaching this summer! I had her for three classes and she's amazing!... Also for sociology, too bad French isn't teaching this summer either! EASY, fun, and you'll actually learn.... what's up with this? I've only checked the schedule a few times but it seems as though a lot of the good instructors aren't teaching this summer :(. If they're taking vacations though, then good for them... they deserve it for teaching so well.</p>
<p>btw, word of advice: NEVER take econ 1 over the summer. Warned by the students, warned by the instructors. and, experience. it's definitely not a course you want to be stressing over during the summer. heh.</p>
