Toughest classes at Boston University?

Boston University is currently my top choice for college. As a junior trying to plan for my future, I'm curious about which classes at BU are considered the hardest? I want to get a glimpse of what I might be getting myself into, challenging classes-wise, if I end up at BU. Thanks for your help!

The level of difficulty for classes can depend significantly on your specific major and your strengths as a student. However, there are a few courses at Boston University often mentioned as notoriously challenging.

"Organic Chemistry" (CH203/204) is frequently named as one of the toughest classes. It's required for several life science and pre-med majors and is known for its heavy workload, complex concepts, and challenging exams.

"Principles of Economics" (EC101/102) can also be demanding. The course covers a lot of material, and the concepts aren't always straightforward. Success often requires a lot of self-study and application of the theories learned in class.

Classes within the College of Engineering, such as the "Physics for Engineers" sequence (PY211, 212) and "Differential Equations" (EK102), are also typically known for their demanding curriculum and course load.

Keep in mind though, these are just examples and the "toughest" classes can change based on your personal strengths, comfort with the material, and the particular professor teaching the course. All colleges, Boston University included, have a range of classes, from ones students typically find very manageable to those that are more challenging. But remember, it's often these challenging classes where you can learn the most and really grow as a student. Striving for balance between challenging and manageable courses can help ensure you're pushing yourself without becoming overwhelmed.
