When I’m first I still react to the graph.
so: I’m in two classes with all of the above, 1 interesting and easy, and at least one with None of the above. BTW. second.
Possibly because easy classes simply don’t look good on a transcript, it’s like saying that a gun looks good to pacifists. Getting kinda sick of these bad paradox graphs.
Aren’t classes suppose to be challenging? I would think that if the course is that easy, you need to be taking more difficult classes (or, if it’s a basic requirement, push through it until you get to the good stuff). Easy classes are nearly, by definition, boring because it’s that easy chances are you already have that knowledge. It’s little fun, learning about what you already know.
not necessarily. It depends on how you define easy. For me, most psychology classes are “easy” simply because (for me) I get the material far more easily, and have an intuitive grasp of it, than say, pre-calc (which others may find easy). I find the term easy to be subjective.
The “three good characteristics, where the combination of two is simply the lack of the other, and the combination of three is impossible” – graph is kinda overdone.
Find something else, this is getting boring.
Also, they don’t make sense: the part of the graph which is only “easy” isn’t interesting or looks good on transcript. Therefore, the “looks terrible on transcript” and “boring” parts aren’t limited to the combination of “easy” and “interesting” or “easy” and “looks good on transcript” respectively.
FIRST!

You nailed it right on the head.
God Almighty, ain’t that the truth.
ugh, ain’t that the damned truth…

then go away

Look up the word “paradox” will you.
Indeed – I guess the class in which one learns a vocabulary didn’t satisfiy any of the graph author’s criteria for desirability.
May I suggest that all these people who make the “paradox” graphs register for “WTF-100: The Definition of the Word Paradox” next semester.
They would, but it’s boring, and would look bad on their transcript.
And it’s hard. (For them, anyway.)

Graphing fail.
Thank you Philip. That is exactly what I came here to say.
Exactly my comment.
I made a graph of it but moderation ate my comment.
You’re obviously going to the wrong school.
whats a transcript?
