Searching for low-key classes at Wayne State University, any suggestions?

As I prep my application for Wayne State University, I was wondering if anyone has recommendations for classes that might be slightly less rigorous. I want to keep my schedule balanced, so any insights would be much appreciated!

Understanding your desire to maintain a balanced course load, it's important to stress that the perceived rigor of any class is subjective as it largely depends on your strengths and academic interests. However, I can give you some pointers about classes that some students have found to be less demanding.

For instance, a number of students have reported that Introduction to Public Health was an engaging yet digestible course. Similarly, Introduction to Anthropology is often appreciated for its interesting content and manageable workload.

There are also various Fine Arts courses, like Basic Drawing, which even if taken without previous art experience, can provide a refreshing change from more conventional course topics.

Remember that class difficulty can depend largely on the instructor, so be sure to utilize resources like Rate My Professors or reach out to current students to get a feel for Professor-specific course load.

Lastly, always consider your personal strengths, academic background, and interests when choosing courses. Don't just go for an "easy" class that you have no interest in. Instead, look for a balance, combining courses relevant to your major, and courses that you find personally interesting. This type of balanced course load can often make managing your schedule more enjoyable and less stressful. If you are passionate about a certain topic, the workload may not feel as heavy.

Best of luck with your application to Wayne State University!
