Greetings from Down Under! I'll be starting Semester 1 at University of Sydney and was wondering which classes have a reputation for being easier to score good grades in. Wouldn't mind a confidence booster to start off my college journey.
When it comes to finding easier courses, it really depends on the faculty and the program you're registered under at the University of Sydney. However, I can share some insights generally noted by students.
1. Most 'Elective' courses: These are usually designed to be engaging and are introductory in nature, hence, they aren't typically heavy on content.
2. Psychology: Known for being an engaging class, it provides a comprehensive introduction to psychology with a reasonable workload.
3. Intro to Economics: Provides a solid fundamentals-based curriculum and is typically considered approachable.
4. Primary Physical Education: This one's often highlighted as fun and easy, with a practical emphasis on physical activity.
5. Introduction to Logic: A number of students have found this course straightforward if your reasoning skills are sharp.
Remember, 'easy' is a relative term and can vary greatly between individuals. Many find languages, for example, to be fun and relatively simple, while others might struggle. So, my advice would be to blend in some courses that align with your personal skills and interests with those that challenge you a bit. That way, you hit the ground running, but also grow and engage in meaningful ways throughout your education. Good luck with your first semester!
