I'm trying to find an easy upper-level course at Excelsior College to balance out my heavy semester. Any recommendations, anyone?
It's important to remember that what might be "easy" for one person can be challenging for another, depending on individual strengths, interests, and experiences. That being said, it might be helpful to consider courses in areas where you feel comfortable or have some existing knowledge.
Many students at Excelsior College have found "PSY 322: Lifespan Development" to be quite manageable. The course covers the basic stages of human development from birth through death, which many people have found intuitive and engaging. While it still requires studying, it's often considered less dense compared to other upper division courses.
Another course, "ENG 310: Modern American Poetry," can also be a good choice if you enjoy reading, analyzing, and discussing literature. The course is seen as relatively relaxed while still providing intellectual engagement and capacity for deep discussion.
Lastly, "SOC 465: Social Change" has been praised for its real-world relevance and engaging discussions. However, as an upper-level course, it would still require attention and effort– there are no shortcuts in academia.
Remember, you should contact your academic advisor for help in determining the best courses for your situation, academic goals, and personal interests.
