...through 6). Ellison walks you through Excel, making the twenty-page country reports manageable, and he drops the lowest of your three quiz grades. But it doesn’t really matter when your TF manages to mark everyone down to a C. The class should add an extra problem set asking a couple of interesting demographic questions: How many students are enrolled in the course? And how many attend lecture? Like most demographic stats, the disparity is shocking. The availability of lecture videos hits numbers harder than would the bubonic plague.Oh, the dreaded QR. But do not to fear...
...able to marshall the efforts of your (smart) friends when you’re (drunkenly) scrambling to finish the set on a Thursday night. Lectures are generally half-full (half-empty?) and videotaped, which is a mixed blessing. On the one hand, you’ll get extra sleep during the year. But the day before the final you’ll also learn perhaps the greatest lesson Science A can offer—that watching 7 weeks worth of lectures in 12 hours is physically impossible.

...juice your GPA with comparatively little effort (join a study group + memorize), instead of a chance to get by without doing much work. That’s almost as good as academic exploration, right?If you want a top grade, all you have to do is put in that extra little effort. While most students do very little work still scrape by in classes like Science A-47, “Cosmic Connections” and QR 28, “The Magic of Numbers,” a little more effort will result in an easy...
