europe I heard that in England and some parts of Europe, you can get a degree for your major without taking "required classes". Is that true?
Like if one wanted to be an architect, one would only have to take classes to be an architect.

Depending on the university and type of degree, there are some degrees with required classes in Britain, e.g. some unis insist on a certain number of maths classes done if doing a B Science degree, a degree in B Med Sci might require some Biology and Chemistry, etc. However, most degrees in countries of the Commonwealth (including Britain and Australia, which I'm most familiar with) don't require unrelated 'liberal arts' studies -- the concept is still fairly unknown, and which is what I think you're referring to.
For more detail, ask somebody with knowledge on overseas study (undergrad studies in North America generally differ somewhat from the rest of the world), and look at relevant institutions such as [Link](Mouse over link to see full location) . ]
Your guidance counselor would know.
It sounds like it could be true. Private colleges can do "whatever they want" and there may be some in England that do what you described.
I don't think many people on this site are going to know for sure so definitely ask your guidance counselor.
Good luck! ]
Hmm. I'm sorry i dont' think it is. But i would ask a teacher or professor or whoever to be sure. ]
