We are in METU and we have two types of course. One of them is must courses and the other one is elective courses.But we find some courses hard and we want that this courses can be elective courses. One of them is literature and according to me literature should be elective in our first year in the university. Of course, there are many students who want to take this course but at the same time we come to university this year and we don't know how we can be succesful in this course. For so many students, literature is a hard lesson and unnecessary, in addiction to this some student don't even like Turkish literature. I think we should take this course but not this year, because we are strange to this course and there are too many words in poems that we don't know. This course can be must course in our second or third year but ıf a student wants to take this course in his or her first year, of course she or he can take this. Finally, literature is a difficult course and should be elective course.
