Confused manWhether you're cramming for finals, days away from graduating, or haven't been on campus in years, you'll always remember the class that drove you crazy and kept you up late studying.

Relive the glory (horror?) days and tell us about it in the comments.

And if you're a current student, break is over--get back to the books!

#15 Stella, Star of the Stat

Stella, Star of the Stat Department, Trawick taught a course entitled "Statistics--A Study in Probablities" which turned ordinary business majors into groveling, mean-spirited, low-level homosapiens. Think I remember it to be a junior-level course for this BBA in International Trade graduate.

#16 Accounting 101. I kept

Accounting 101. I kept falling asleep as I studied the text. (Debits on the left, credits on the right.....) I decided to keep the textbook for my old age in case I ever had trouble sleeping. I still have that book. Trouble is, I use accounting daily in my business. Looking back now it was one of the most valuable courses I took at UT and still has relevance 43 years after graduation.

#21 MIS 333K... but it was also

MIS 333K... but it was also the best experience!

McCombs has awesome classes & great teachers.

Whoever submitted #9 must have not selected a very challenging major, or taken their time to earn a degree. The college experience is what you make of it and you need to look for and be excited about tough classes in order to get the most out of your studies there.
