Classics hard?
I'm in first year engineering and I was wondering what classics courses are easy (I don't mind taking upper year classics) in terms of course load? I currently have macro econ has an elective but I'd rather take a course that I'm interested in (the classics courses).

I'm currently in Classics 2MT3 (medical terminology). Honestly, the whole course is straight memorization of ~500 medical terms and then you just regurgitate some of them for the midterms/exam. The course is very easy to do well in AS LONG AS YOU KEEP UP WITH THE MATERIAL. Once a week just spend an hour reviewing the terms you learnt that week and you'll barely have to study for the tests. If you have any further questions just let me know.

Oh alright thanks! Do you know anything about the Classics 1M03, 2E03(ancient world in film) and 2K03(greek/rome society) courses as well?

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about those course. I just took 2MT3 as I heard it was easy if you're a science student as you're exposed to the terms in many other classes. I'm sure you've already looked at them, but if not, check out the course reviews of those other classics courses on this website to see what other ppl thought of them.

If you're concerned about workload, that means you SHOULD take first year macro because it's the least workload of anything at Mac. Classics 1M03 looks like more work... you might actually have to read a textbook and write something!
