Looking for a good W course

The subject says it all.

I'm a 2nd year transfer student going into Business. My college writing course transferred over, but without the W designation. Just wondering if anyone went with any of the non-ENGL W course offerings (PHIL, POLI, etc) instead, and how that went.

I don't think I'll be able to stay awake through a 3-hour ENGL course each week.

    I did phil 100w....easy course, was basically my first foray into phil. I got a decent mark without reading any of the textbook, which was why my mark is only decent.

    An easy A if you show up to class and keep up to date with the readings..

    That's the one that I did at Camosun, but they wouldn't give me the W on it when I transferred it.... dammit!

    tech 101w, it was incredibly easy, but take english 10 something, it gives you b-hum too. it never said cannot take further credits for different english 10#.
