  • Very bird. Assignments can be done in groups so it lessens the load off your plate. As long as you actually follow the rubric, you'll easily hit 90s. Content is easy but the textbook readings are heavy. It is also very beneficial for adult planning and opens your eyes about the possible struggles you can experience in adulthood and how to prevent it.

  • Definitely a bird course. Course is composed of three assignments (individual poster, group presentation and group essay) and a final. Final was more challenging than the rest of the course, however if you study in advance you will be fine!
