I am not sure that the harder class, the better class. Sometimes the hard class may urge lazy person to greater efforts, while it may discourage him from success in that class. It depends on circumstances. However, based on my experiences a certain level of laborious works considering student’s ability is necessary to succeed in the class.
First of all, it is common that most people are apt to delay their works if there are no limitations and constraints in the class. Strict grading is considered as one of constraints. When the teacher grades student’s works strictly, most students feel stressed about the grade. To get good grade they should be always on time to their class, keep the due data, and succeed in the test. To do so they can easily get the educational goal of the class. Meanwhile, it is observed that some students are lazy to do their class without any hard works and constraints in the auditing class. In this case, the hard class is beneficial to student’s work in their class.
On the other hand, if the class is too hard for students to keep up with the class, the hard class discourages most students from success in the class. When the students are not satisfied with their class due to the hard working, the efficiency of their works in class is too low so that they may not succeed in their class.
The Analects of Confucius says, “It is always safest to take the middle course.” I am sure that a certain level of laborious works within the student’s ability is indispensable for our class.

I see your view of point, and I agree with you. I think that sometimes students say: This class to hard for me, I will not study for it. I will have F anyway." I think that the best classes that are not too hard,but not too easy. I don't know such classes yet. All classes are hard for me because of foreign language. But it is better that first semester.
