I think it's just where your background is, really. Maths makes no sense at all to me unless I read like five books on the philosophical concepts behind it in the first place. It <I>is</I> the same logic, and philo actually looks at it for the point of its depth, rather than simply proving the validity of arguments.

micro = tutor has no idea what he's doing and has to email us the ACTUAL tute answers each week
int. business+politics = discussions each week, have to go up and talk about your assigned questions and the tutor asks you stuff and things like that. really interesting.
japanese = lots of work if you do everything you're meant to. quite fun, at least one test every week :( it's pretty crazy, we have 4 teachers of 4 different nationalities (french, chinese, british, japanese)
accounting = erm i'm not really quite sure what happens in them... :uhoh:
