AFAIK upper level POS classes are the most time-consuming. There is often a presentation/paper combo as a final assessment.
BUS 260 is a cakewalk, could be done very fast. BUS 321 is pretty easy too.

From what I know about the history courses - not much - the courses all have a paper. So there is going to be time needed for research and writing. Those tend to take longer than an exam. One's interest in the subject will also determine how quickly they can move through a paper as well. If you're researching something that you don't give a flying fig about then it is usually much more difficult to keep moving forward and being motivated. Management and history are two very different topics. I don't think you'll find many people who've taken both. BUS321 has been an exam. BUS415 had a PowerPoint presentation when I took it. The Final Assessments are also subject to change and several have in the last year or two.

I've only done Constitutional Law and Arab-Israeli conflict, but both were among the shortest classes I took for my history major.
