I'm sorry, but this could potentially be a horrible idea. If you have not branched outside of science courses and would like a "bird" course, a third year art history course is extremely problematic for several reasons. First of all, you might have difficulties writing third year level essay in the humanities if you are a science student. This puts you at a disadvantage. Secondly, the others in the class will most likely be familiar with terminology and artists that you may have never had the opportunity to learn about previously in your courses.
Like any program, art history is not a cake walk. Maybe try taking a first year class as an elective opposed to a third year course. As an art history student myself, I would never take a third year science class as an elective. It would be completely out of my element, and probably bring my average down.
Good luck though..
