Each discipline had courses that sorted the sheep from the goats. diff-e 
and e-mag theory were two for the ee's. o-chem did in the potential 
chemists. iirc thermodynamics weeded out the civil engineers. 

When I took diff-e a friend had a bet with the TA for the course on 
whether I would pass. My attendance in class was spotty to say the least 
and the TA said 'No way'.  He lost.

That was the nice thing about the psychology department. There were a few 
required courses but it was mostly a la carte.
