Whether or not you're a freshman picking out your first schedule at orientation or your last semester senior, you're definitely looking for the easy electives. The first thing we all turn to is either Rate My Professor or your sorority or fraternity walls for advice. No one can deny the numerous notifications you get from people writing in your Facebook groups "So has anyone ever taken WTF5432 with Professor Sniffles?" I know I've done my fair share of extensive research on all of my classes and professors. Unfortunately, FSU has a way of deceiving their student body with "easy" elective classes. Like come on, how hard can a class about Harry Potter actually be? Here, I have accumulated a list of courses that you should avoid while enrolled here at FSU. They may seem "easy" and "fun" but I assure you otherwise.

REL1300: World Religions

Being a 1000 level class, it should be super easy, right? Also, I've attended private school my whole life, so I felt super confident about taking this course over my second summer C. Totally going to be cake, right? WRONG! It resulted in my first W on my transcript (withdrawal with dean's approval). Jeez, that was a rough time in my life.

HFT2061: Ales, Lagers, and Culture

Oh my God! A class about beer!? Oh hell yeah, I go to Florida State I'm for sure going to get an A in this class. How hard can learning about alcohol be? WRONG. You get tested over how bitter the beer is, the "under notes" the "taste." 10/10 DO NOT RECOMMEND.

HFT 2062: International Wine and Culture

A friend of mine took this class. This friend of mine that has never gotten a C in her life, like I'm talking a very smart friend. "Omg hell" is how she described this to me. In class, it was all fun and games. They would pair wine with yummy food. But then.. the tests. With no study guide, 50 fill-in questions, and questions like "What river valley is most popular for growing Chardonnay grapes" or "What parent varietals (grapes) of Sauvignon Blanc." I can't even wrap my head around the horror of this class. And I seriously love wine. You fellow wine lovers have been warned.

DAN3144: Global Perspectives on Dance

So while abroad in Valencia, Spain, my friends and I were introduced to the wonderful world of Flaminco Dance. We thought we were going to be attending dance classes and drinking sangria during class. Nope, we had to watch movies in Spanish and had multiple tests and papers. If you decide to go abroad, do not take this class.

HFT1000: Intro to Hospitality

You think that this class would be easy based off of the code "1000," however it is quite the opposite. The discussion boards and assignments are a breeze, yet come the test you will fail no matter what. The class doesn't prepare you at all for the tests, and then you never use the information again to complete the hospitality minor. Basically, if you want a hospitality minor, change your mind.
