My question is why are you taking a 100 level class in your final year?

Lots of people take 100 level classes as electives as Seniors, it's strategic planning. I'm in a 100 level class right now because I just needed a couple more credits as electives. I've put in 7 semesters of hard work, I feel like I am entitled to an easy class in my last semester.

Ask my advisor. She's the best at ISU, but kind of screwed me on this one. Took 260 with Burras and it was probably the easiest class I have ever taken. Just so much information in 155 that it makes my brain explode. Just one of those classes that you need to work a ton on and probably not the best to take it your last semester of college.....

Yeah, 154 is not a class to take when you don't want to invest time in busy work any longer.
 
My roommate is in 154 this semester. Tonight, his desk was covered in papers for this class. Some project they are doing. So glad Im not an agronomy major.

It's not an elective for me, but that's what I thought of this class. Took agron 260 and it was a piece of cake, but man 155 is rough.

I'm in 155 and not doing a project at the moment but we all have this test on Monday. Everyone I've talked to including the professors say we're gonna fail....

Yeah, I took 114 and 154 before I transferred to ISU, so I didn't have to go through the whole "teach yourself" process so I can't really speak for that. I know that is the main reason whey most people struggle in those classes.

Yeah the videos are awful in that class. I can't even watch them without wanting to slam my computer against the wall. Just a bad class for your last semester in college.

Oh yes! The memories are flowing back! He must be working on the land use report.
 
I took 154 last spring and didn't care for it too much. The thing that ****** me off the most was having to color all those damn maps. Seemed like a waste of time and just created more busy work. Also, anything involved with the site labs took a lot of time. Just seemed like that class was full of busy work. Tests were always written pretty hard as well.
