Do you need them to be UL? If not, then I would suggest Bible as Literature. Shakespeare's Plays is UL. I found both of them to be quite straightforward.

My school just said they need to be humanities credit so anything literature would count. I have six credits left.

I'd do those two then. As most people have said, you may find other humanities courses from other providers a bit more straightforward, but from Shmoop these two are really doable.

What would be the easiest Literature UL courses? I just want to make sure in case my school accepts them or not.

It seems like Shakespeare's Plays would be the easiest UL for sure. The next easiest, I think depends on who you ask, but probably either Modernist Lit or Women's Lit.

I would like to know too, so I can save time Smile Please report back about whatever UL you take.

I hope to finish two lit courses in a week to send over my scores to my school. I hear holocaust lit is easy as well.

I've failed 2 of their "easy" courses because the questions on the exams are way too shmoopy. They also won't delete a lower score on a retake to take you from a 69 to a 71% Sad Haha it was worth a try asking them.

After those 2 fails I'm beyond frustrated with their system and I probably won't do any more courses through them. I really wanted my ULs there but I may have to just do other options.
1. Prep Phase: Hopeless, 15 credits, need a BA fast, never heard of TESU
2. TESU BALS: 121/120 (9 months)

3. RN Paramedic Bridge - Excelsior (9 months + CPNE wait)
4. WGU RN -> BSN
5. BSN -> MSN/FNP

Depends on what courses, because some are much easier. Also some people who already know the books very well find it easier. But in general, some people find it frustrating even if they know the books well. A lot of us don't think they are fun or easy.

I just want to pass two courses by Monday. I am one point from passing holocaust literature but that means I’d have to retake my final which I reeeeeally don’t want to do, I’m afraid I won’t pass. And I started drugs in lit but holy shit it’s hard. I thought since I read most of the holocaust lit books it’d be okay but no....I was wrong.
