Why do schools offer classes like this?

<p>Everything’s relative, depending on student aptitude and preparation, and the way a given course is taught. </p>

<p>The time to worry in our house was when one of our kids decided that fluff courses and “easy A” courses were a waste of tuition money, and crowded (overloaded) their schedule with courses that required LOTS of prep time. The result was not pretty, to say the least. </p>

<p>If your student is already taking three “meaty” courses or classes well outside their comfort zone, you probably want them to take a class that is relaxing or requires little preparation, even if only to bring them up to full-time status. </p>
