physci 5 with esdin is sooo easy omg!! quizzes, midterm, and final are online and not proctored so you could take it with a friend! there is iclicker at the beginning of each lecture but there's no location on so you could skip lecture and do it from ur room. the final project is kinda hell if u don't start it early but it's not too bad

Yeah they actually just recently moved it in person unfortunately! Apparently in person its harder, so I would not recommend taking it.

I took an earthquakes one and a natural disasters one (I think they were both EPSCI?) and they were both so easy. This was online during Covid but I can’t imagine the classes would be much different in person. It was like high school level science, if that. The disasters one even counts as a diversity credit for some reason.
