You have to retake 3 first year classes? Were they part of the 6 classes that didn't transfer over? UBC usually just accepts sfu courses at face value.

Not to mention not being able to do a microbi major (Only got 2nd year standing for microbi) and only getting third year standing in a 'joint major in science'  Now I know why most people don't transfer, just a huge hassle. Wasted at least $500 on deposits/forwarding transcripts to ubc too

Anyone taken BUS 201 before and able to comment further?
Read some of the reviews on RateYourProf....mixed result from people who taken it with Peter Tingling. Some say its super easy..some say it's super hard.
I know it's not one of the required courses...but just looking for an elective / gpa booster.

Could anyone give me some very easy B-Hum or B-Soc courses I can take as my 5th course?
Cheers
EDIT: Looked at either HSCI 120 or HIST 101. Both of these fill into my schedule (other classes I wanted to take does not or are already full :/). Anyone knows which one of these 2 are the easiest?

health science might be easier imo, cuz its all from txtbook material and wiki-ing LOL
history requires more research and library info digging + papers.

They've apparently changed it (friend told me she had to read 3 thick ass books, this is now not the case as everything is online.) Plus they don't offer it in class. You had a bad experience with it? Sounds like history 12 to me lol

^ I did it with Andrea, we played with WWII guns... that's about it.
You do need to read Evans, its like the holy grail on WWII. Reading on Odysseus sucks balls, even worse than webct.

But this link below, a friend sent it to me as I've been taking a couple of classes from Capilano, it's not too bad. Might not help you now though, but might help someone else.

I'm trying to make this as painless as possible while maximizing days for work and nights and weekends for rugby. I just decided to take WW2 distance because apparently all readings are online and I could save a lot of money on books this way now that I think about it.

He was an awful prof who seemed out of it, class was not academically challenging so I pretty much didn't give a crap. Waste of time and money,

Clossey and Andrea is failsafe, Janice isn't too bad but her teaching style is the old style (journals vs primary sources), Ilya is awesome if you can stand his accent, Taylor is good if taken in an afternoon, Kuehn is decent too if you're into Ottoman/ME history, Macdougall's Germany/Nazi class are awesome.

If I want to go on facebook with my laptop and take notes at the same time (and being ineffective). It's 2012 and that's my choice. (unless shes changed this no laptop policy)
It's a new course so there are probably kinks but it's urban history with field trips so it should be alright.
