More College Electives that Will Help Pave Your Way to Success

So, you've already taken all of my suggested electives and you still have room in your schedule for one or two more. You're probably wondering, "what other classes will assist me in landing job/internship/graduate school opportunities after graduation?"

Remember that relationships are essential to your career success. Thus, it is probably best to avoid lecture-style classes with hundreds of students and shoot for courses that are small and discussion-based. Ask around and get recommendations for the best professors and the smallest class sizes. Honors departments often specialize in offering classes like this.

I could make an argument for various specific courses that would probably benefit you (say, statistics, because you'll want the knowledge if you decide to go to grad school), but the "who" (the quality of professor) is much more important than the "what" (subject area).

Oh, and did you already add in another fitness class...come on! There's too many benefits (career and otherwise) to ignore exercise any longer.

Actually what I usually wondered was "which courses are the easist to pass?"

But look where it led me! :)
