Suggestions on an easier humanities class?

Published

So, I opted to take Religions of the World (on line) for a humanities/elective credit and was thinking it would be interesting and easy enough since I am taking it with some other challenging classes. Much to my surprise, it is taking up SOOO much of my time :confused: Too late to drop so I am hoping to finish with a B- at best. I'm thinking I will need to recover by retaking an elective in the summer and shoot for an A. Any suggestions on something a little easier and not so time consuming? Thanks in advance!

The humanites i am taking is Music of the world. Very Easy:) This my 1st semester in college and I i am having no trouble with this class. It is a very interesting class. If you like music and learning a little about other countries you will love this class.

I'm with ginna121. I've signed up to take music appreciation the only thing that sounded somewhat interesting. Good luck with your class! I'm sure you'll do fine.

I've heard that Music Appreciation is one of the easiest classes you can take! So, I highly recommend that one! I had a few under my belt so they just picked on for me. LOL! Hopefully you'll get one that's really easy too!

Go through the list of classes, look at each professor, and search for reviews. I found some very easy classes specific to my university that way.

Not the first time I have heard about the music appreciation. Maybe I'll try that one or the theater, hmmm. Thanks so much for the advice.

I enrolled in Religions of the World this semester, and had to withdraw. I'm also taking Anatomy, Chem I, and Statistics, and with my current home schedule, it was just too much. I am taking an online Medical Ethics class during the summer semester to meet my second Humanities requirement. I did what the others have suggested, and looked up the instructor on ratemyprofessor.com, and there were good reviews for her and the class. Good Luck!

I agree with tokyoROSE about checking ratemyprofessor.com for school-specific info. I know of a person who took music appreciation and dropped it early on. She admitted she took her first test and didn't get a single question correct -- earned a "0". A "0"! "It wasn't the class I thought it was going to be," she said. What may be easy in one place could be unbelievably tough in another.

I really enjoyed my World Religions class. I took it online too, but would have rather taken it in class.

It was interesting, challenging, and not basket weaving by any means.

I took art appreciation online. It was ridiculously easy. Don't worry about what class would be interesting, worry about getting the best or easiest teacher. My art appreciation teacher only had us write 100 words a week and do a midterm and final right out of the book. All of the answers were in a pre-made study guide. Ask around your campus as to who the easiest teacher is.

I took a blended Humanities that was part art appreciation, part music appreciation. A VERY easy A!
