Most undergraduate students at the University of Toronto are required to take breadth requirements to complete their degree. To satisfy these requirements, students often need to take a course or two outside of their comfort zone. This week, we asked returning students on campus to share what courses they have taken that were most outside their area of study, and to rate the difficulty of the course on a scale of one to five birds (one being the hardest and five being the easiest). Here is what they had to say.
