Quick! Need an oppinion!
« on: November 29, 2008, 08:11:35 PM »
Alright, I need oppinions from all you college grads. Im doing the running start program to make up a social studies credit I dont have time to take in highschool, and the registration is due monday, but I still cannot make up my mind. Im a history fan, especially military history, but history in general is great. Which is a more interesting class? Anthropology (ANTH 200)? Or World Civilizations I (151)?

Doesn't sound anywhere near as interesting as World Civilizations I.

In any case... why do you need to make up a social studies credit?

Because we're required to take 4 years of social studies to graduate highschool. I need to skip over social studies next year in order to take AP Chemistry, Physics, Calculus, AP English, French, and Autoshop (I know jack **** about cars and I need to learn at least a little). Ive already taken the highest level class my school offers, AP US history, so im not missing anything, I just dont have an oppening in my schedule to grab a credit.

everyone i know who took anthro hated it, world civilizations is really interesting stuff, mesopotamia, ancient sumer, greece, rome etc, took alot of college history and ancient history is really interesting to me... its all up to what you like, some people do like anthro but i've heard mixed reviews

I never took Anthro, but my first adviser in college was the head of the Anthropology department.  He was a sweetheart.  That serves as credence for me!

I once got into university teaching material for Anthro, - it was dead boring.
So, I think you'll be on a good track with the other one ;)
Good luck.

Serenity you need your own opinion, not someone else's.  Read the course descriptions or syllabuses if they're available.

Yeah history sounds more interesting and not as difficult to type as anthrisopappology.

My vote is for history.
