No kidding... my senior year in college I was cruising into to my degree, everything looking fine. I still had the printout from freshman year showing which undergrad classes I needed and all were checked off...easy peasy.

Thank GOD my mom encouraged me to check with the engineering dept to confirm the regular guidance counselor had the facts straight, because of course he didn't and I was short 2 under grad requirements.

I asked the guy straight up, which are the easiest classes to pass, I don't have any extra time after my upper division engineering classes, so I took two crap classes just to finish.

Nothing like sitting in an art history class right before an analytical statics lab. The "scenery" in that class was a lot better, as I remember, though
