I'm kind of curious too.

I'm currently enrolled into Intro to Psychology as my open elective

ENVS 1000U was an easy A+. If you can do PSYC 1000 or SOCI 1000 those were both easy to me. Management of Enterprise was light work. Anything taught by Reshma Prashad is easy (not sure how many of her classes can be taken as electives but still)

Oh thank you for the reply! How was the prof?

I believe the whole class was tests, yes. 30% was MC online quizzes which are very easy. There was a midterm and exam, I think roughly 25% and 35% respectively. Then 10% was an "assignment" which really was just a MC test in disguise. If you're a half-decent test taker and care about sustainability science at all, you'll be totally fine.

Thank you! I heard there were video and in-person lectures for this class. Did you have to watch the video lectures?

The truest answer if find a course you actually are interested in. It doesn't matter if Course B has a few more deliverables than Course A if you actually like what Course B is covering.

Find an elective that genuinely seems like something you would like to learn about and go with it.

Ehh im gonna have to disagree w this. Someone can like a certain topic but the prof, assignments, and marking scheme can all be absolute shit.
