I had in book, self instruction for Econ 101 and 102. Going to class made no sense other than to take exams. I couldn’t understand a word the TA’s from India said. Starting at the 200 level Quantitative Methodology (my concentration, basically calculus/statistical analysis) was too complicated to miss.
Going to poly sci classes were nothing but an endorsement of communism or socialism. I told them and wrote what they want to hear and walked away with the A.
For the most part I felt going to class and paying attention in college made it easy to get at least a B. Actually doing the work made college easy.

Most of those classes can be taken in HS now. I don't think my kid has any GER requirements, and only major courses when he starts.
