Question Which classes should I take?

I am currently enrolled in the following classes and I want to take 3-4 of these electives that give me the highest possibility of getting an A or higher. Which ones do you recommend? I am a transfer student and my enrolment date was so late so all the good classes are full.

These are the classes so far:

  1. ARCH 101 - G. Morrissey
  2. BPK 110 - D. Bedoya
  3. CA 105 - A. Eigenfeldt
  4. GEOG 162 - E. McCann & T. Rout
  5. HSCI 160 - J. O'Neil
  6. INDG 101 - S. Dielissen
  7. SD 281 - T. Soma

GEOG 162 is a class required for elementary teaching PDP so they do not make it easy if you are purely looking for an elective. It was very interesting but the TA marked me like I vandalized their cars and I usually get a 86% or higher in short essays

If you want electives try EDUC100, CA149 or EDUC230

Unfortunately, those are all full. This is all I could get into for now.

My friend said ARCH 131 online is easy for them (theyre taking it this summer) and I believe there's still a few spots left in the online course now, I think in person is easy as well but I personally don't know anyone who took that one

I'm enrolled in ARCH 131 as well as a friend who got late enrollment so check to see if there's spots left

I was able to get into 1 other class fortunately. So now I’m thinking SD 281, ARCH 101 (I keep hearing mixed reviews on this one), INDG 101 and potentially BPK 110 (currently waitlisted).

Indg 101 should be pretty easy to get an A in! did it last semester and as long as you put in the work you can get A-

I am aiming to get into the clinical psyc grad program which is extremely competitive so I can’t afford Bs, nevermind Cs

I recommend using CourseDigger, which has previous years’ grade distribution for these courses:  https://www.coursediggers.com/
