That major means what? Helping out with TOEFL

Often, at the end of the reading or listening section on the TOEFL they will ask the students, "In what type of class would this text/lecture be?" Whiich is a good question, except that many of my stduents don't know the difference between astrophysics and astrology...making it a pure guessing game.

I LOVE xkcd and there is a fantastic comic over there about all of the majors (and how they are terrible. You can view it here: http://xkcd.com/1052/

It can be hard to print out (because of the size) but if you copy and paste it into paint and make two collumns you can make it work on a horizontal page in word.
