    Grade: A

    Overall low-stress class. You complete study questions every now and then, which is basically your homework. You can redo study questions as many times as you want to get 100% so it's easy. The exams are much shorter compared to most classes and you also get to use a notecard to help you on all the exams. I advice that you type your notes to fit as much information as possible on the note card.
