<p>How hard is poli sci 101? A friend of mine said to avoid the 100's poli sci courses...is this true? Which teacher is the besT?</p>
<p>Inglehart is very famous and teaches a 100 level polisci course. Other than that, I don't know; I had polsci 1xx credits from AP and courses at another college. The subject matter seems simple enough.</p>
<p>Inglehart is very famous, possibly the top at survey research. He teaches comparative politics: 140. I worked with him. He intimidates me.
And I dropped his class because he lectures...dryly. He's not a socially awkward nerd or particularly out of touch...his lectures were just boring.
He did do a cool scale of the masculinity/femininity index of countries. It's on the internet somewhere. I think it ranges from Germany to France. I'll let you figure out which one is which.
I'm a polsci major and I never took 100-level classes. Someone told me it was easy to get B's and hard to get A's.</p>
<p>which 200's classes should I take?</p>
<p>200's are all complex systems/internships
300 is easy and might be fun during the election season.
317 is scary, but fun, because there's a few hundred pages of reading a week, the prof teaches by Socratic method, and asks about random cases. It's like a pre-law class in a way.
339 changed my life. I used to not care about China, and then I found out about China. And it's scary. The prof is very popular.
395's prof is the nicest woman ever. She's fairly easy, but mostly because her philosophy is that she's here to help us learn, not to kill our GPAs. And her philosophy works.</p>
<p>woah sounds intense...are these classses for freshman?</p>
<p>Um, I'm not sure. I took AP Gov and had credit from other universities beforehand, but I'm not sure if that would have made a difference or not.</p>
