It all depends on your goal of going to college. Do you have ad-hoc self-taught and real world experience doing your major? Then you may just want a paper to show your employer. No clue about anything in your field and want to learn? Then having intense classes should be your end goal. Everyone has different reasons for attending college, at the end of the day a lot of students forget that they're only there for themselves and no one outside of their classroom will care much about what they did in it.
