Abby Monhollen Student at This School - Grad Year 2016
The classes at Arizona State can be challenging, depending on the class and the professor. However, you can be assured that the professor cares about your success and will be willing to help if you ask. This is especially helpful in some of the larger sized classes that can have 200-300 students. In the honors college, honors-only sections are capped at 20-30 students, which allows students to really get to know their professors. Overall, the workload is manageable though some classes are significantly more work than others.
