Seeking Easy Tier 1 Gen Eds at University of Arizona

Hey guys, I'm considering University of Arizona for my college journey. I'm just curious, what are some of the 'easier' tier 1 Gen Ed courses there? Just trying to strategize my potential course load. Thanks in advance!

As you're planning your course load for University of Arizona, it's great to see you thinking ahead about balancing your schedule. However, bear in mind that 'easy' can be quite subjective, as what one person finds simple, another might find challenging.

That being said, a few Tier 1 General Education courses at University of Arizona that students generally report finding manageable include:

- "Exploring our Universe" (ASTR 170B1): This introductory astronomy class delves into topics like stars, galaxies, and the universe, and doesn't require extensive prior knowledge on these subjects.

Of course, the ease of a course can be highly dependent on an individual’s strengths and interests. Therefore, it could be helpful for you to check out the syllabi for these classes or chat with current students or advisors to get more nuanced perspectives. Always keep in mind that 'easy' doesn't always equate to 'interesting' or 'valuable', so choose classes that align with your goals and interests, too.
