Reminds me of my Chem class. First half of the year there were the normal experiments and stuff but the teacher got pissed that some of us "rushed" through them. Then she had a death in the family so she was out for a few weeks. When she came back it was nothing but counting atoms just to get revenge on the spergs in the class that drove her nuts in the 1st year.
For College, I'm going to go with all the courses that did not count for graduation as the most useless ones.

PE and health- pointless filler class. Ironically most of the kids who were forced to take the class were already in good shape.
Civics- Take notes and take easy tests. The teacher didn't get much teaching done due to me and the ghetto kids constantly fucking with him.
Spanish 1 and 2- I cheated through the entire class by just searching up the answers on my phone.
Chemistry- The entire class just played games on the Chromebooks while the teacher was getting pissed that nobody was paying attention. If I remember correctly 30% of the class failed.
Art- Draw shitty stick man drawings and turn them in for an easy B.
Computer science- Do easy work on the computer and play Minecraft after your done with the work. The most productive thing I did in that class was grief a girl's Minecraft house

YES! I thought that would be such an interesting class but the teacher was a major SJW who just wanted to talk about how minorities were treated unfairly (however I won him over because I knew who Andrei Chikatilo was when he couldn't remember the guy's name. That was the only good thing that happened in that class haha)

High school tier physics in year 9
Probably absolutely fascinating for physics enthusiasts, but a complete waste of time for me. However, because I went to a school where all students were required to take high school and later university tier physics as well as chemistry, biology and mathematics classes in year 9 and 10 (and pass at least three of them) I was forced to study the subject. Luckily I switched both countries and schools just as I was about to start high school, because I ended up failing every single one of the aforementioned classes and the physics class most spectacularly (I got the lowest grade which pretty much only people who hadn't done much aside from being present during the lessons got)

Took sociology as an elective in my freshman year of college. That was a mistake. My first taste of SJW batshittery was in that class. Like @SpergPatrol said, if you didn't answer with "white people are irredeemably evil" or "Socialism good! Capitalism bad!" You'd get severely marked down in your grade. Went my entire school life from getting A's and occasional B's to low C's and high D's in that class. I was a liberal at the time even, but because I didn't slap my hands together in approval like an autist watching Sonic cartoons at the professor's Marxist wankfest, I suffered for it.

Ethnic studies.
If it weren't a core prerequisite in my college, 0% of the non-sociology majors would attend it.

As a prerequisite to take an actual programming class, I had to take a full semester one on pseudo-code; a full semester class (a night class even since I was working two full-time jobs, and really didn’t have time during the day) covering a subject that high schoolers would understand after a week. We were not allowed to work on homework during class, despite almost every one there being a grown-ass adult with better things to do than busywork. The class was structured so that we were reading verbatim from a six year old text book (in a compsci course!), with an instructor that had a severe speech impediment (not her fault though it did hurt the pace of each class) and a tendency to veer off on vaguely-related tangents (definitely her fault and it ruined what Little good the class did). This all culminated one night were, after three hours, we were 7 pages into a 14 page chapter (the shortest in the book) and were told to just read the rest on our own time. Dropped out of college the next morning.

I was forced to take Intro to Sociology class in my junior year of college. If my other humanities courses were force feeding me SJW bullshit, that class gave me an enema. Totally worthless.

Back in my autism summer volunteer program days we had a lot of stuff on gender, "diversity", and dating because the higher ups were a bunch of fucking creeps

- Computer Applications in High School. This wasn't computer applications, it was a Microsoft Office class. 70% of the class was typing excercises in Word. The rest was making shit like grocery lists in Excel. The final actually covered Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, the latter of which we never actually covered in class.
-Literally Every Single P.E Class I've Ever Been In. With exception of Yoga in college, which was great. I could go on and on about why they were so bad, but all I will say is that getting into distance running and weightlifting after high school involved having to un-learn everything my P.E teachers taught me. I also managed an amazing 17% overall grade in 8th grade P.E. That teacher was a bitch.
-Portfolio Presentation. Oh the novel I could write about this class! Imagine if you will, waiting several years for a required class to be held at a time that doesn't conflict with other things only to have it be the most pointless experience of your life. We actually did nothing. Literally nothing. I did my German homework in this class. The idea was that we would learn how to assemble an art portfolio and how to market ourselves, and I learned that you don't need an entire class to figure that out. Our teacher was a very punchable fruitball of a man who spoke in a valley-girl voice peppered with filler words. He thought he was the smartest man alive and I thought he was bordering on re.tarded. Someday in the future when I've got myself established as an artist I'd like to do workshops for high school/early college students on this exact subject because I was so disappointed that I spend actual money for all that bullshit. If those kids walk out of my class thinking "gee, I sure don't want to beat this woman to death with a tire iron" I will have already done a better job than that teacher.

Hmm, let's walk through the list.
Biology: Was a class they shoved the non-STEM majors (I wasn't STEM yet back then) freshmen in, professor had contempt for us. Spent half the time having the class have political debates with each other because he felt that was more likely to enrich our lives than forcing us to study biology. I enjoyed going there a fair bit but it was a huge waste of my time when I think about how I could have done a different science instead, like geology.
Honors: Bullshit class for the honors program at the school that was half "this Is HoW yoU do SCholarSHipS" and the other half was stuff like brainstorming how to solve world hunger. I met one of my best friends there, but I hated the rest of it.
Success Skills: Every major had a different class freshman year that was to teach them general skills for college, with the focus being on whatever was relevant to your major. Colossal waste of my time.
Calculus for Babbies: I got shoved into the dumbass non-STEM version of Calculus. Later on I had to take actual Calculus, thus making that credit completely fucking useless.
Speech: A lot of people get a lot of speech classes because they suck at public speaking and have stage fright. I'm not retarded, so I can write a speech, and I'm a narcissist so I don't have stage fright. Hated the professor. Waste of MY time, but not necessarily of the other students'.
Business Management: Bullshit class where you learn a million different ways to word common sense ideas. Professor was a trainwreck.
Marketing: Same as Business Management.
Scientific Controversies: Professor spent half of the class basically just exposing us to old pop culture shit that had nothing to do with the class subject.
Techniques of Historians: Same professor wasted our time again.
German: I took it and only later realized that ANOTHER class I had counted for the same credit, even though the website didn't say that, so I was basically conned into taking a class that counted for fucking nothing.
There were other classes I hated, but those were the ones that were actually useless, either in concept or because the professor didn't even try to teach the subject he/she was supposed to teach, or were entirely unnecessary.
