    CNPS 363 is repeated.

    tbh I never understood the point of taking electives or gpa boosters (unless you’re first year or premed). Courses that are in my specialization or adjacent to it seem much more interesting.

    though some of these topics intrigue me I’d prefer to learn about them on my own time (though I guess it’s hard to do so for Counselling/Leadership/Negotiation courses), without any pressure, and having more autonomy on what I learn about.

      Good points 👍

      Some of them I did to help me with my BCS application as an unclassified student, which freed me from a lot of restriction/pre-req limitations when I was a degree student.

      The COMM and negotiation courses were part of my bridging module for my second degree. I felt they were very practical and helped me a lot from buying a car to negotiating my salary for new jobs.
