[quote=Anonymous]Intro classes are large by nature. They are weed out classes and separate the boys from the men. If you can "survive" a class with 150 peers and deal with the anonymity (although you can always reach out to prof. if you take the initiative so you're more than just a number...) than you show maturity and independence...not everything in life needs to be individualized with hand-holding. As others noted, labs and major-specific classes are smaller , but that can vary too. If you major in a common subject like Political Sci verse a Russian Lit than your core class sizes will vary no matter what. As a VT grad, I do have to say I was surprised how many classes were online teach-yourself type class. The math classes come to mind as an example. TAs were available for tutoring and exams were at a centralized comp. ctr. The pro to online though is that it is so flexible and available 24/7.[/quote]
