Blow Off Classes - Nubblies.net Forums

I know that someone has probably made a thread like this before, but I haven't seen it. Unlike most of you on this here blessed site, I still have time left to serve at WCHS, and I would like to make my scheduling as easy as possible. So, those of you that care, what are some good classes I should take aside from the usual core classes?

If it is blow off classes you are looking for, well, just take communication processes and systems. In my opinion, they are the easiest classes I have ever taken in my high school career. However, pretty much any of the technology classes are blow off classes.

Oceanography was easy as piss
Business Foundations is good if you have a friend to dick around with
Business & Personal Law is easy...but pretty boring. You get like 10 min. each period at the very least to tit around though

I agree with Sim that monitoring is great. Though I recommend hooking it up so you can be a Receptionist Office Monitor, first you get to hear about everything in the school before it happens, also you get to run around school about 3 or 4 times on average. AND THEY LET YOU SLEEP.

Listen closely to what I have to say...

Statistics is possibly the easiest class offered at WCHS. The explanation is three-fold.

a)Mr. Wappas teaches approximately one day a week, leaving the other four as free time...well, "work on homework time", but when you only get one assignment of piss easy work, it's free time. I call it 'Euchre 101'.

2)We only had, I believe, 2 tests the entire time. They were easier than shit, too.

d)A majority of your grade is based on a project that you can select what group your in and what your project is about. Also, since this is such a big grade, he grades it very respectively. Basicly everyone got an A...even if they cheated.

Basicly, it's a class for seniors, and he knows people take it as a blow off or an extra math credit. You don't care, so he doesn't care. I would strongly suggest taking this class...he even let some people leave to play games in other classes, and a couple of my friends would come down and play euchre with us.

But you forget... we're being forced into monitoring and/or study halls next year.

I took an Independant Study in Web Design last year... which was pretty nice, the first 9 weeks I worked on personal projects, and the second 9... well, Pliedes brought me to Nubblies... and that's about it.

In addition to Wappes' Statistics class, i can vouche for the simplicity to it. As Mr. Wappes comes into class one day, looking a bit tired, he walks up to the front of the room and says "Well, I really dont feel like teaching today, so just do whatever and be quiet"...
He goes step by step through his wallet atleast once..and throughout the course, you have 2 chapters to do.
IN my class, we didnt even finish the second one. I didnt do one lick of homework until the final night, where, i copied all homework fromt he back of the book (he usually only assigns odds) answers only and went from a D to a C+ in the class..

Wow, I can't believe no one mentioned Journalism! It wasn't so much of a blow-off class the first 9 weeks, but as soon as the replacement teacher came about, it became one.

All the teacher did was drone on and on, and he didn't care the least bit whether or not anyone payed attention to him. He would let people "use the restroom" and he wouldn't care if they didn't come back until an hour later. You didn't have to turn in any homework, and he won't count it against you either (at least he didn't to me.)

I talked to my friend the entire class period, turned in 1 assignment, and never studied, and i managed a "B" if that tells you anything. I'm not exactly the smartest kid in school, either.

This class will be hell, though, if you don't have a friend who is also in the class.

Web design is very easy. Despite the gay teacher, the projects are easy, and somewhat fun(if you know what you are doing.)My friends and I just messed around most of the time and listened to music, it was great.
