One of the best: Theism, Atheism, and Existentialism, at NYU. Professor Carse.

Worst? I probably dropped the course and at this time, I don't remember.

I'm only a sophomore now so I'm sure this may or may not change but:

My worst: ENG 120, critical writing, the professor was unclear about instructions all the time and in her eyes, every format was wrong...

Also, hate my history course, History of Human rights- i love the topic but the teacher lectures and when we ask questions he goes around a circle and most of the time I just leave class confused.

My best:

My Teacher Ed course- Understanding schools; it was my first major course and I learned a lot absolutely loved it, and my Writing in the Disciplines class (english) I am currently taking it, and the teacher works hard to make sure that all of our readings are relevant to the education major. I am currently working on writing my teaching philosophy and how I will apply literacy to my content area .

Best - Social Foundations of Education (required to enter K-12 teaching track). Ultra interesting, and highly useful in my career.

Worst- Senior capstone on Jane Austen. Nothing like a seminar focusing on a single author and it being one you don't care for. However, it was the only senior seminar (required) that was offered the semester I had available to take mine, due to my student teaching requirement.

Best, all of my major related courses - Accounting

Worst, Statistics being taught by an Indian before I had much exposure to the Indian dialect. Now after dealing with IT all of these years its fine, but right out of high school.....yikes......

Worst: American History at a traditionally black community college (I'm white) with an outspoken Critical Race Theory professor telling us white people are evil. lol.

That was more 'education' than my 24 year old liberal mind was expecting.

Best: Biology. Just loved it. Same school, average professor. But geeking out on Biology really made my life ...made me feel like I had found my calling.

Sadly, that was long ago...
