Which of these electives would colleges consider as jokes?

Applying to College

<p>I'm junior deciding on my senior schedule right now. I'm looking to add one more semester elective, but can't decide on which one.</p>

<p>Marketing
Business Management
United States Gov. and Politics
American Pop Culture in the 20th century
Conflicts in the Modern World
Developmental Psychology</p>

<p>I know that people are going to tell me that I should chose the one I love, but they all seem interesting. I just want to know which ones seem like utter jokes to normal people like you guys.</p>

2

<p>The pop culture one seems like a joke, the rest look fairly legitimate.</p>

3

<p>The three most serious looking are US Gov. and Politics, Conflicts in the Modern World, and Developmental Psych. </p>

<p>Marketing and Business Management seem light- even lighter than the Am. Pop Culture, imo.</p>

4

<p>They’re all jokes except US Gov. and Politics.</p>

5

<p>They’re not jokes. They’re all legitimate subjects and each are genuinely interesting. Any college that looks down upon any of those is not an institution of education.</p>

6

<p>^^ So my college should give me credits for my “thumb wrestling 101” class?</p>

7

<p>

</p>

<p>obviously not a business person I take it. Hard to call these a joke when most universities have majors in these fields…</p>

8

<p>lol, I’d feel so much better if I know top colleges wouldn’t look down on any of these courses.</p>

<p>They’re all pretty contemptible. What are you, an airhead bimbo moron!?! You should take some serious courses, like underwater basket-weaving or vodka appreciation studies. </p>

<p>Nah, I’m just kidding. Top colleges rarely “look down” on any course that you do well in. I mean, at least you’re in school learning something. At least you’re not doing drugs or joining a street gang.</p>

10

<p>^^^^^^ What?</p>

<p>We’re talking about high school, not college. Two different playing fields.</p>

<p>If you think those classes aren’t jokes, why not start a 4 year business programs in high school then, huh? Probably a bunch of BS classes that you can sleep through and still get an A.</p>
