Why are so many of the GE courses so intense? This course was crazy hard, it seems laughable that it would be-but you have to memorize alot of material that is not even gone over in class. The labs are pretty time consuming and regardless if your sick, you will get an F, if you don't show up-no make up offered. Unless you want to major in Earth sciences then I would not advise anyone to take this course.
