...lots of confusing slides, which makes the class boring but pretty easy. Speaking of slides, there’s B-21, “The Images of Alexander the Great.” The course is a legendary gut, and requires little actual work except for some slide memorization exam time. If you’re not one for actually “studying,” do yourself a favor and take this course. Make sure with any course, but especially with Lit B, to shop the courses and really think about whether the very narrow topics offered...
...coffee. Math 25 is for those who have no such qualms, but with only an AP Calculus background. They have some psychopathic need to prove themselves to the world. Math 55 is for those who have been reared from the cradle to be mathematicians. They aced the AP Calc exam at age 12, but may be unable to pass a Turing test. Concentrators often finish requirements in their sophomore year by taking an introductory course in algebra, analysis, and geometry, or topology. After this, many students take graduate courses. The professors who teach each course change almost every year...
...word on the take home exam: Don't let the words "take home" lull you into a false confidence. If you procrastinate on this one, you'll be in for a very long and stressful night.

On the plus side, you'll breathe a sigh of relief when it's returned—the grading is fairly easy. Another tip: during the review sessions in May, just put on your best sad puppy dog face and appeal...
...Stein in “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” and multiply by ten. Just make sure you don't snore (another real-life occurrence). Don’t bother even buying the textbook; you only really need to read the pages on the exam outline, which is given out a week before the exam. But make sure you know the lecture slides cold. Also, try to get a chill section leader—this is critical to your success during the course...
...multiple-choice tests (HA!) that seemed to be part of a large, as yet undisclosed experiment into the induction of anxiety and regret in 18-22 year olds (not so HA!), Jeremy Wolff will request that your mastery of the material be shown on an overdone, quasi-humorous written exam. This is quite the deviation from your original plan of getting an easy A-, course credit, and the ability to mindfuck loved ones into submission. But no sir, psychology is not all about learning how to get your roomie to pick up his damn socks and lulling the quasi...
