Columbia Basin College: Need Advice on Easy Science Credit

Hey everyone! So I have to fill a science requirement next year at Columbia Basin College and I'm kind of stressing about it. Science class isn't my strong suit, but I really need this credit to meet my requirements. Could anyone suggest the easiest course or professor to take? It would be a huge help. Thanks.

Hi there! First off, it's perfectly normal to feel a bit stressed over classes that might not be in your comfort zone. Finding a class that aligns with your interests and learning style can make a huge difference.

For your science requirement, consider exploring introductory courses in various fields. For instance, Environmental Science is often seen as a relatively approachable course because it connects science to real-world issues. This might give you a frame of reference that makes the subject more relatable and thus more digestible.

Course difficulty can also depend significantly on the professor. Each professor has a different teaching style, and what works for one student might not work for another. If possible, seek out advice from students who have had the same professors before when selecting a course.

Lastly, remember that effort is a big component of success in any class. Make use of resources such as office hours, tutoring centers, online resources, and study groups to give yourself a boost.

Good luck! You've got this!
