Dumbest/most useless classes you've taken

Reminds me of my Chem class. First half of the year there were the normal experiments and stuff but the teacher got pissed that some of us "rushed" through them. Then she had a death in the family so she was out for a few weeks. When she came back it was nothing but counting atoms just to get revenge on the spergs in the class that drove her nuts in the 1st year.
For College, I'm going to go with all the courses that did not count for graduation as the most useless ones.

The general business management class I took for my undergrad was taught by a young Chinese dude who couldn't speak English. I've taken a few classes taught by Asians who have had a thick accent that made it difficult to understand them, but I would still describe them as fluent. This guy was not. Even talking to him one on one, you could tell it was near impossible for him to even hold a casual conversation.

All of the lectures and exams were obviously "canned" and provided by the textbook publisher, so it's not like he even needed to speak English, but I would literally go twice a week and watch him try and fail to read a PowerPoint presentation in a language he didn't understand for an hour and a half.
 
Film history.

It was the most boring shit I've ever suffered through. Who cares about some random thing a director 100 years ago did to his movie that made it so damn special?

And I was forced to take it even though I was seeking a STEM degree.
 
"History of Baseball", which was just disguised "White Guilt 101"
 
Local independent art classes. Beginner level daycares for retirees.

We had a chemistry teacher who would spend days putting sheets of notes on the projector and we'd spend the whole class just copying them down. But I passed so 🤷‍♂️

Every single minute of college. I never got into my chosen field and I can't remember any of it. I could hire myself out as a cautionary tale: get practical experience for an actually useful job, kids.
 
Vexillology at uni. We didn't even have lectures half the time because the professor didn't show up to them and the exam was some primary school level shit that had 15 questions, 5 of which were yes or no questions and the rest you had to name flags of countries. At least it was easy credits.

English from 5th to 8th grade. Dumb bitch barely even know how to speak English better than the students.
