Data Structures had a 40% fail rate. -- nm - David Nov 3, 15:07
Wait, I change my vote. Electric Circuits - Reagen Nov 3, 14:55 12
- Yep, EE235 at Vandy. Took it three times. The class that drove me out of my electrical engineering degree. -- nm - TFox Nov 3, 15:03 5
  - You went to Vandy? I don't know why this surprises me, but it does. - musubi Nov 3, 15:07 4
    - Lived for six years in Nashville. Loved that city so much, I stayed a couple years after graduation. - TFox Nov 3, 15:09 3
      - This fact still is shocking to me. This is like telling me Reagen graduated with a 2.5 gpa from Florida State. - musubi Nov 3, 15:18 2
        
        Now picture me snapping along with the rest of my acappella group to "This I Promise You" in a southern sorority house. - TFox Nov 3, 15:23 1
        
        Did I fall asleep and wake up in bizarro world? (nm) - musubi Nov 3, 15:27
- Wait. Worse than OChem? I've heard horror stories from people I consider near-geniuses. (nm) - musubi Nov 3, 14:56 5
  - Among the other engineering majors, the debate was always between these two classes for the worst. Always. - TFox Nov 3, 15:06
  - Yeah, at least with OChem I had a fighting chance at memorization. -- nm - Reagen Nov 3, 14:59
  - Yeah, Org Chem made 4.0 friends of mine cry. -- nm - Will Hunting Nov 3, 14:57 2
    - That's an excessive use of significant figures there. (nm) - musubi Nov 3, 14:58 1
      - precision is required because in college he had exactly 5.3 friends -- nm - crash davis Nov 3, 15:01
I've heard that this is a program-killer for some people. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 3, 14:55 1
- It was a famously tough lower division course for budding pre-meds. I'm sure it was tough on purpose. -- nm - con_carne Nov 3, 15:02
Ooh. -- nm - nubby Nov 3, 14:54
