What are your classes like?

Laura

Most of my classes have less then 25 students, many have 11-15 students. That makes classes small and professors really get to know you beyond your name. Its also cool because you get to know your classmates and really have fantastic class discussions with many people participating. This does mean though that you have to go to class, most professors allow a maximum of 3 absences. There are more students in the Humanities lectures because every student taking a Humanities attends their levels lecture.

The classes are usually around 20 students. There are going to be students in the class who never say a word, but who are brilliant. Then there are those who talk too much and say absolutely nothing related. Be nice to all students because you'll see them over and over again. However, don't be the know-it-all. Professors sometimes give participation grades but most know that students learn in different ways and some enjoy being quiet.
