<p>Basically, I have 2 GE's left to take (incoming 3rd year) that are either not being offered in the Fall or are full (F Sixth College practicum). </p>
<p>I asked my adviser what I should do, and she recommended I take a "buffer/elective" class in order to reign in the credits and boost my gpa. Any recommendations? I've heard CSE3 (took), MUS 15 - The Beatles (currently waitlisted), COGS3 (conflicts with an existing class that I need to take for my major), TDGE 1 (****ty morning time), TDAC 1 (full, not willing to waitlist), and PSYCH 1 (have taken), SIO classes (been there, done that, they are relatively easy but not my taste), and Gospel Choir (took & is P/NP rather than graded).</p>
<p>Any others I'm missing? I figure I should take advantage of the opportunity to take a fun elective course, so please, any and all ideas are welcome.</p>
<p>If you are fluent in a foreign language, upper div language courses are usually really easy. I took upper division Russian and all we did was watch Russian movies and talk about them. You could try taking a 2/3 unit class like Gospel Choir. In my understanding, if you show up to class you are guaranteed an A. Also my roommates have said that the science for non-science major classes like Natural Disasters and Society and the Sea are super easy.</p>
<p>I have to disagree with operaticmimosa. I took a quarter of upper div chinese to fulfill my foreign language requirement last year and it was killer. there were quizzes every class and a paper due almost every week. </p>
<p>You should pick a class you’re genuinely interested in. Even if it’s the easiest class on campus, if you’re not interested in it you’re going to be miserable.</p>
<p>^ i second that. mus 11. so easy. and you learn more about the culture and music imo. although jewish folk culture/music may not be your cup of tea, it was quite easy. i found it enjoyable.</p>
<p>no readings/assignments. just attend lectures, which may be really boring at times…but it’s really not asking much.
just two midterms. final. done.
although attendance is recorded for sections. but then again idk if it’s actually factored into the grade.</p>
<p>MUS 11 is not being offered this coming Fall :(. </p>
<p>I am currently waitlisted for MUS 15 - not stoked for 3 hour lectures though, although it’s on the Beatles, so I guess there’s really nothing to complain about.</p>
<p>Take classes that are based on how good the prof is, even a seemingly unappealing class can be great to take and more importantly fun if the prof is good.</p>
<p>But when you consider part of that time will be spent watching music videos and class rarely started on time or ended on time, it’s not bad at all.</p>
<p>Oh try TDTR 10: Introduction to Dance Theory, there are still some spots. Dance department classes often get overlooked. I haven’t taken it myself but have heard the teacher is quite entertaining and that its not too difficult. Also dance movement classes I’ve heard are pretty fun, but most are pretty wait listed as of now.</p>
