Hi I'm currently in the international relations program and I'm suppose to take 1 math course as a requirement. I really suck at math and so I can't really decide what would be the easiest here...
The course list of what I can take are:
Statistics - POLI399, STAT211, STAT213 or equivalent. Acceptable equivalents are: ANTH307, ENGG319, PSYC312, SOCI311, STAT201, STAT217, STAT333, STAT337, STAT357, APSY301, APSY303

but i think some of them are actually restricted....
If fellow U of C students can recommend me the easiest out of these that would be great.. thanks

Take stat 213 if that is intro to statistics, I did terrible in it, but it was a pretty easy course.

211 is the lesser of two evils but if you happen to kick ass in it, 213 so that you can take the Part Deux, 217.

Random: I found Calculus way easier than Stat. :nut:

Me too. Maybe because Calc seemed interesting and stats at the time seemed pointless. 8am probably didn't help either. I went to class so infrequently I actually showed up just for the midterm but it was in a different room, which was repeatedly announced in previous classes (apparently!). I searched Science Theatres high and low before I found it :rofl:

:rofl: That's too funny.

My prof always said 'Poisson' table as 'poison' tables. :rofl:
