Worse Class You Ever Had  

My worst class was probably German. I didn't have any friends in that class and the teacher was psycho! She couldn't teach for anything and there were some pretty odd people in that class.

I feel your pain. It sounds like your instructor was a real tool. Not to mention that Astronomy is a pretty hard class. My worst class was in my freshman year. I had to take a public speaking class. I'd given a couple of reports in the front of the class in high school, but nothing like this. The class was full, and it was held in a lecture hall with about 150 students. So it's my first semester, I was in a new place, surrounded by strangers, and I wanted to crawl under my desk and die. We had an outlined plan of speeches we had to give throughout the course, but my professor was pretty sadistic. She did an exercise with us every class. She would pick a handful of students randomly, and put their names on the board at the beginning of class. These people would have to prepare and give a speech by the end of class. Then our professor and the entire class would critique it. It had to be five minutes long, no more, no less, on any subject we felt like talking about. On top of that we were videotaped so we could go back to see what was good, and where the speech fell apart. It was horrific! It wasn't even graded! To my professors credit, we all got over our fear of public speaking. On the first day when we heard about this exercise one of the girls in class spoke up mentioning that it seemed unfair. The instructor just smiled and said,"This is a public speaking class, what did you think you'd be doing?" That girl had to go first:)

Astronomy wasn't my worst class, but it was definitely not what I expected. I was thinking oh I would learn about the planets and stars - which I did have an interest in . . . but it turned out to be more about formulas and it involved mathematic stuff (which I didn't have an interest in) - so it was rather difficult for me.

The worst class I ever had was this Renaissance Art History class in college. I was an art major, and I loved art history . . . but the instructor was AWFUL. The man was truly an expert in this period of art, but geez he had such strong opinions about everything. It was his way or the highway. If we raised our hands to ask any questions, he give you the eye and answered in a tone as if we were stupid - and after a while anyone who dared to ask anything quivered. This quizzes were sooooooooooo hard - I don't know anyone who got a good grade on them no matter how hard we studied. It was a terrible class, but we couldn't really complain because he just happened to also be the head of the art history department - ah!!!

anything that has to do with numbers, i really suck at math, In my school you wont be popular if you dont have a+ grades, How I wish I was studying in USA, so all I need to fit in was to be a jock just to fit in because I was really bullied by the smart kids because of my weakness in Math. As an elementary student, I love the science subjects built when it was turned into another computation subject on highschool I despised it more than Math. History was my Fave subject all my life and I was terrified to find out that there was no History class for the seniors and it was replaced by economics.

Hi thuhuong

My worst class was certainly chemistry! Being a total idiot at math, O level chemistry is the last thing that anyone like me would want to take

During the first year we had a horrible teacher. She didn't come into class, and didn't explain anything about chemistry to us. Since we knew nothing about chemistry, we always ended up copying from our reference books to complete homework. There are days she suddenly make us go to the board and complete chemistry equations and if we didnt do it correctly she'll say things about us that are not exactly pleasent to the ears.

She's still teaching till today (I am out of highschool already) and we hear numerous complains about her bad teaching but at least now she's been trying to improve. I guess people to learn after a while to make themselves better.

It was really horrible that we learned nothing, and I felt that I have wasted my time.

After one year was over with her, we had another chemistry teacher. he's really bad. So it was generally 2 year's of being clueless, feeling like an idiot and failing in exam.

I'll never learn chemistry again thanks to this horrible experience!

Have a nice day!

I have a three-way tie so far from only four semesters. Is that bad? lol. The first terrible class I took was called "Cultural Geography." I took it as a requirement, but it turns out that it wasn't a diversity course so I have to take yet another course like it...ugh. The professor was horrible, quite young, inexperienced, and just didn't want to be there, I'm going to assume, because he was absent without notice for about six times (six times!) during the semester. Technically, a student is only allowed to be absent 4 times during a semester, if over the limit, the student is subject to an F grade. Now, in my personal opinion, if a teacher is allowed to be absent 6 or more times for their class, then so should his students because it's not like anyone is learning much in this situation anyway, right? I hope someone got some common sense and fired his careless butt, so others won't have to deal with him.

The second terrible class I took was "Digital Illustration 1," a class within my major. The professor was monotone and that irritated me a bit. She was hardly enthusiastic about anything...and it was ART for heaven's sake. lol. She also moved way to quickly when covering material--even though we all told her to slow down. She gave me headaches in class, along with the bright computer monitors from sitting in the dark for 4 hours. It was a weekly, 4 hour long class and I dreaded going to it.

Third, Ah...third...I'd have to say "Color Theory." I was absent twice in that class--just because I hated going to it. The professor was very inconsistent. There was no way to adapt to his teaching methods because he was always flipping back and forth about what he wanted for homework assignments. He was very particular and I feared him. lol. Can't really blame him. I guess that's to be expected among many fellow artists. We all have some form of OCD...

i bet your glad all that is over..... what a wasted subject..... i didn't like my math subjects because i don't like math. i had to struggle through it.

The worse class I have ever attended to in college was the HUMANITIES subject. It's not the subject that sucks but the professor. We paid the professor to sit and let us study for our selves and memorize that damn humanities book to get ready to report anytime that he wants too. This subject sucks and I dropped it wahaha.

When I was in highschool I did one year of exchange in Germany, so I when I just arrived I didn't speak German and I had to take physics and math in German! It was so bad, so boring! and my classmates kept telling me to write down everything so I would learn German faster.. haha it was really bad. Afterwards I learned German but quitted those lessons and it was a very cool year!

The worse class I had was my Sociology class with a very different teacher. I didn't like his class because he would never call me. It was the worse too because it was the subject where I got the lowest mark in all my years in college. I didnt like to study that subject and I was always absent. He even told me after the semester that I was suppose to fail but felt pity for me because I have to retake the subject but he didnt know its okay for me to retake that subject as long as he's not going to be my teacher. lol
