Classes with no (or very few) writing assignments

edited July 2007 in General
With the exception of science classes, what classes have no or few writing assignments?

I hate writing! Well, actually, I don't hate writing...it's just that I have a medical condition which prevents me from being able to organize my thoughts and write well.

    You should also speak to the advisers as there is additional help for people with conditions like yours. These things are in place to help you out, so use 'em. That way you won't have to miss out on something that really interests you because of this problem. :smile:

    And imelting's suggestions are good ones... but the Kin class I took last semester had some writing to it.

    um, ling 100 (or 110) didnt have paper either. Everything else I've taken had papers I think.

    I got something similar but different. I tend to habituate after reading only a few pages of a book which is why I look for classes without midterm/exam/test components. I hate exams :angry:

    Another tip would be to check on the SFU website for the outlines before you sign up for the course. That way you can see if there are writing assignments planned!
