What is the most useless class you've had to take?

Published

Ok, just curious what classes that you have been required to take that just make you ask WHY? I am taking American Government right now and I am so bored. And if I get one more person ask me why I am taking this for nursing I am going to scream? My answer is I guess they want me to know how to be politically correct, lol. Ok, so what's your thoughts.

Nursing History.................snooozzzeee!

I'd have to say "Success & Study Skills"...

It sounds good...but was very boring. It focused on goal setting...

If I didn't have any goals...I wouldn't have taken that class, now would I?

Drawing 101, a humanities credit, and a P.E. class called "Adaptive Nursing".

Adaptive Nursing consisted of a bunch of nursing students sitting on their butts for two hrs and complaining. We all got an "A" just for showing up. We never did one single assignment.

A total waste of time and $$.

PE! isn't that physical education?!!

Here's a doozy LOL- when I was in college the first time and my major was Nutrition (which was under the Home Economics Department - why I don't know but anyway...) we HAD to take a class called

Household Equipment

yes we HAD to take a class about washers/dryers/ovens/etc :eek: I sure hope that is out of the ciriculum by now (I graduated in 1987)
