Several super easy classes but my D&C class was the easiest.
It was the same semester that Pres. Hinckley challenged the members of the church to finish the BoM by the end of the year in General Conference. The D&C prof. told us if we read the BoM by year-end we would get an A. I was reading the BoM in Arabic for my Arabic 490 class, so I literally had to do nothing to get an A in D&C. Class time was just talking about D&C. No homework. No test. Nothing

Health and Physical Education was an absolute joke. I went the first day and never went again. All material was online. All quizzes were online. All that had to be done was sign in for the quizzes and answer a few questions about health that any middle schooler should know.

Life Science (I think that is what it was called) We got this big lecture on the first day from the professor that many students thought they could test out because it is a general science overview class so we could take a test and get a pass-fail if we got above a 60%. We were told that it was the same as the final. The final grade would be a combination of all hw and quizzes and final or just the quizzes and final or just the final if we did better on any combination of those. I took the final at the beginning of the year and it was ridiculously hard. The chem. portion had a detailed breakdown of how valence electrons would affect different orbital shells etc. I got a 59%, so I couldn't just take the pass/fail. Even though we were told that was the same test as the final, I didn't believe it. The syllabus didn't match what that test had. Being a cocky kid I figured they were full of it. They were. I didn't buy the book, or go to class. I didn't do the homework. I showed up for the final and aced it. It was 10x easier than the comp out test.

Geology 101. Super easy course. Show up to lecture, hike behind the temple, and go to a lab and label a bunch of rocks. Easy A

History pre-1500. It could have been a hard class with a different professor. I had a professor who was as old as dirt. He thought it was great that he had taught so many students' parents. He even taught someone's grandparents the class. The guy was so OLD. The tests were all essays. Several topics to choose from. Write an essay in 20 minutes. If it looked good he gave you an A. Super easy class.

I had an English class that was super easy. I don't even remember the number. It was required to graduate to have a 2nd year writing course or something. No one was an English major, it was just a requirement so the professor let us use papers was had written for other classes if they fit the criteria. It was a class where we handed in papers we had already done and then critiqued other's papers.

My BoM classes were great and easy. We had 4 quizzes/tests. All of them were only 20 multiple-choice questions. The professor. was under the impression that Bom should be about getting a spiritual experience and not about some academic exercise, so we would just come to class and discuss the reading for the week. It was a lot like the Come Follow Me structure.
