392 is labour relations....the course where we learn about unions, employement laws, etc. we had to do a bargaining simulation. remember now??

yea....
i don't think 399 is a hard course. u should do fine ~ :spin:

i'm planning to go into MSc of PhD in Finance after i graduate.
yea ~ i know it sounds crazy, but i kinda want to learn more about finance ~

oooh.....really? sorry, when i looked it up on the courses website, i must've read another course. Okay, i took 392 in second year, which is why I don't remember the course code... . collective bargaining and stuff right? Oh yes. haha that course was fun. I liked it... well it wasn't bad....and our groups were competitive, so it was kinda exciting. :spin: i don't remember having to memorize much.... like i said tho, i'm good w/ short term cramming, so I don't really notice.

MSc of PhD in Finance? how many years are you gonna be in school? OMG! hehehhe! (sorry) :) hmm...i did quite well in the finance courses in second/third year, but never really took an interest in them. hehe, good luck to ya!

Personally, I think Anthropology 100 (Cultural Anthropology) is a very interesting course. Says me, a Sociology/History double major. Sociology is also my thing.

There are 3 different anthro courses: Biological Anthro, Cultural Anthro, and Archeology. I would say Cultural would be the most interesting: learning about races, ethnicity, culture, etc. like Sociology. Biological Anthro may be a bit boring as you may have to learn about early humans, memorizing their names, etc. Archeology, well, you probably know what that is... rocks and fossils... I'd never take that.

Oh, I had David Ryniker for Cultural Anthro 100. He's an interesting prof, but a great portion of his tests are MC. My exams composed of 66% MC and 34% essay. MCs are usually rather tricky. 71% class average

Yeah it's been a while, I guess I'm back now that I have time to kill in summer...

i thought it was super duper boring. everything is memorization! all the diff names for the all the ancestors or something...

yea ~~~ i think it depends on the person.

i personally find some courses in math to be fun. like i always have fun proving difficult theorems or imagining several vectors in multi-dimensional spaces.

but if i were to take those so called "easy" courses in arts, please kill me because i hate to memorize things.

There are three seperate first year Anthro courses. Anthro 100 is Cultural Anthro. The other two are Biological Anthro and Archeology. I forgot what numbers they are. Each one is worth 3 credits. If you want to try out one of them, take Cultural Anthro (100).

I didn't really try to memorize much actually. Most of the course was about understanding the concepts I thought. The only annoying part I thought were the random examples in the text with the tribe names, which I didn't bother to memorize in every single detail.

The way I see it is, in math, I have to force myself to solve problems that I could care less about over and over again. But in courses where you learn about how everything in the world is wrong, it gives me something to bitch about. I like criticizing other people, and all I learn in Anthro is how today's world is wrong in every single way. It goes with my personality. Anthro/Sociology majors like to complain. It's not just a course. It's a way of life.
