Searching for an Easy Class at Skyline College

Hey all, I'm currently mapping out my schedule for next semester at Skyline College. I have a heavy course load in my major and I'm looking for a fairly straightforward class to balance out my schedule. Can anyone suggest some 'easy' classes at Skyline? Any input would be appreciated. Thanks!

While it may not seem obvious, selecting an "easy" class isn't always about finding the course with the least amount of work. Instead, consider finding a course that aligns with your interests as these tend to feel less taxing and more engaging, making them a nice counterbalance to more challenging, major-specific courses.

For instance, if you enjoy creative activities, you could consider an art class—such as photography or graphic design. These classes often have hands-on projects which can be a nice break from lecture-heavy courses. Plus, they can provide you with a new skillset that could be practical beyond your college years.

If you're interested in fitness and wellness, consider a physical education class. They often include a practical component (such as sports or fitness routines) and might be lighter on theoretical content. Not to mention, they can serve as a stress reliever amidst a heavy academic schedule.

If you're a people person and a good communicator, consider a communications or public speaking course. These type of classes can be less heavy on study and more focused on class discussions and presentations, offering a pleasant change of pace.

Remember, what is "easy" can be quite subjective. An art class might be easy for someone who loves drawing but could be difficult for someone with no interest in visual arts. Thus, it's best to choose a class that aligns with your skills and interests.

In fact, many students have found that the "easier" classes end up being the ones in topics they are passionate about, since they're already motivated and interested to learn the material. This can make studying feel less like work and more like a hobby, making the course a welcome addition to a heavy course load!
