My fellow college brothers. What's the hardest course we've taken so far?

Economic Game Theory. Next semester I take Econemetrics this shyt ain't fun anymore brehs :bryan:
I wanted to take Game Theory this summer (my last quarter), but I had to choose between it and financial econometrics, and I'd rather have the practical skillset.

people say economics because those are the ones all those foreign teachers with those HEAVY accents get stuck with. My first economics class I could not understand a word my professor said for the first month, but I still passed :russ:
A lot of foreign teachers. Last quarter I had an old French lady and she was impossible to understand when she got excited. She pronounced statistics like "steady sticks" :wtf:. My classes have been mostly Chinese/Taiwanese/Korean students. I'd say there's an average of 7 non-Asian students for each class of 40-50 students I've been in. When I get a higher test score than my Asian friend :ohlawd:

calc 2 is :merchant: :merchant: its like calc 1 on steroids. if you dont have a good understanding of 1, beware of 2. 3 is actually easier than 2, its basically just revisiting 1 but with 3 variables. this is what ive heard i only went up to 2.

but the hardest class ive taken is accounting 2 :whew: if i ever see another balance sheet or income statement :sitdown:

I'm taking this right now :noah:

Wait until you meet Mr. Statistics :shaq:

Hardest course for me was Finance 315 (principles). The book required for my course was used at other colleges for grad-level classes :damn:

Just gimme a C on them weed-out courses.

Not hard at all. The end is a little tricky with the div, grad, curl integrals, but other than that it's real easy.

Partial derivatives and multiple integrals? :childplease:
Do that stuff half asleep.

Most difficult course I took was Calculus I. The jump between that and pre-calc was more difficult than the jump between any other courses in math and physics.

I have to take Calculus "Applications". I think that's a business calculus since it's required for all biz majors at my school.

Put me up on that.

I took business and economics calculus. Basically, we went from deriving the tangent of a line in a very clunky, roundabout way, to show what taking the calculus derivative really does. Then moved onto things like optimization, integration (anti-derivatives), and multivariable optimization. Might be missing a thing or two, but overall it wasn't bad. I managed a 3.9.

Calc. II nearly made me drop outta college freshmen year. I cant figure out how I passed Calc I. I didnt help that my prof. for both classes had a genius IQ and was clowning the class for not being able to keep up.

Virtually every excessive Law writing assignment was a chore. I can summarize and explain a case/law in under 10 pages but the professor wants 16 :sadbron: I never learned how to bullshyt through papers in high school.

Operating Systems.:beli: Honorable mention: Algorithms. :gag:

:merchant:

You have my sympathy. Tis why Im not a CE (programming). From what Ive heard this like the hardest class in my school period.

At my school the ppl that take this class say you should take it with THE MINIMUM amount of credits possible and even then make those other classes easy cores.

I heard that shyt is like a fulltime job (40 hours of work a week):bryan:
