At the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam

These were by far my hardest courses. One course that comes somewhat close is a course in Buddhism (meditatie en paychologie - meditation and psychology). The issue is that I didn’t have prerequisite knowledge. The psych part was easy. Reading a 1000 year old Burmese text on Buddhism/meditation at that time had so many crazy traps that it was just fascinating how wrong I interpreted that text.

Easiest course that I took: social psychology

Best course that I took: a teacher that said “I am too lazy to teach. Just make a cool project.” I taught myself iOS development and made an iPhone app that led to a job for a year creating an iPad app
