UMPI ELECTIVES RECCOMENDATIONS

[wildebeest]

All of the Milestones are short essays. Some a paragraph or 2 is sufficient. Some it's longer. The Final Assessment is what you should be concerned with as that's what your grade is based on. All history courses have a paper or PowerPoint for the Final Assessment.

I've been doing mostly Politics classes which are generally 2x500 words essay for milestones and 1500-word essays for final .. which is not bad at all..

I was just wondering if it's the same for HIST, in terms of specifics.

I don't think I took either of the classes you mention above, but in my experience, the history classes are more content-heavy and have longer finals, U.S. Environmental History being an exception.
