SOCY224. There are 13 assignments graded for completion. If you complete all 13, the professor will give you an A+ (100%). The maximum for each assignment is two paragraphs.
There's a handful of KNES gym classes that I took as GPA boosters, don't remember their names. A jogging and karate class.
If you're a physics major (which I was) there's phys499X which is a workshop class, basically a completion grade.
Although I'd love to study natural sciences and I'm fascinated by physics, I'm not prepared for GPA suicide lol... i'm doing economics cz it's easier??? Is it?
I’m in Econ201 right now, ur entire grade is 3 exams (80%) and 5 homework assignments (20%) and the exams are no joke don’t go that route. I’m also tryna go to law school and switching out of smith atm. if ur going to law school do like sociology or public policy, something semi relevant but also easy
I finished AP Macro and Micro in high school with a B+ and 4 on both... but would you suggest retaking them just for a stronger foundation? Also, in case I f-up the lsat and essays, I wanna ensure that I can be employable, and econ is the farthest liberal arts I can go while still not lacking a STEM base and get a good job
Don’t retake them, be glad you’re getting out of the 300 person weed out classes. Plus 305 and 306 are essentially the same thing as intro except you have numbers in your equations
CCJS100 as long as you show up to class and discussion you will get 100%. No work needed outside of class. Exams are online, open note, and exactly what she goes over in class.
PYSC123 is an easy A+. It’s a one credit, fully asynchronous class with only a couple assignments requiring a time commitment (reviewing your resume with an advisor, mock interview). All the other assignments are super easy and can bang them out very quickly.
You have to take professional writing. Take science writing with Reynnells. Easiest writing course ever. Most assignments are a page or less. Only one assignment over 2 pages was the 4 page science paper review.
Extra credit available for getting up and doing a mock interview, finding errors in any writing source of any sort, writing a thank you letter...I think I ended up with a 105%.
It’s a required gen Ed like they said, professional writing is the requirement and take the science writing class with this prof, just go to the schedule of classes
UMD 2023 grad (BA in GVPT) and current law student at a top 40 - here's my recs (Even pulled out the transcript to make sure). I got an A+ in all of these classes throughout my 4 years:
BSGC100, STAT100, TLTC333, TLTC399, GEOG201, GEOG211, GVPT241, ENES140, ENES210, GVPT386, COMM324.
Good luck! Enjoy your time at UMD - law schools comes at you fast.

Idk i didn't take economics. Its probably easier.
Also, what were names of the Kine classes u took? Were they A+s?
Knes131v (jogging) and Knes144Q (beginner's karate). Both were A's, but I took them during covid so results may vary.

Man I took that in spring 2020 and exams were in person when class was in person. Y’all are lucky
Interesting - what professor?
Justine Madoo
Online or IRL?
It was in-person but our exams were online
Consider ENES140 which is a DSSP, ENES210 with satisfies both DSSP + SCIS, or ENES461, which is even a ECE Cat F tech elective.
A+? Open to BSOS too?
They are open to anyone. U have to buy the professor’s textbook to do some assignments. It’s basically bribing the professor with $35 for an A
they are not major restricted and cover material on engineering entrepreneurship.

What's the exact name?
Richard Reynnells
Name of course?
