Most Boring/Hated Subject That You're Forced to Take?

Classical Mechanics.
I can't remember what the Latin for "torque wrench" is, either.

The worst course I ever took (though not compulsory) was mathematical economincs. There was no math content beyond A + B = C + D + E (and this was in the final year of a math degree). But if you couldn't remember the exact difference between the definitions of 57 different types of money supply, you stood no chance.

Students Disciplined in Harvard Cheating Scandal
Howard Gardner, a professor at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education who has spent much of his career studying cheating, said that eventually, the university should “give a much more complete account of exactly what happened and why it happened.”
Wait! What?!

Administrators said that on final-exam questions, some students supplied identical answers, down to, in some cases, typographical errors....
Okay, I have to admit that's a major FAIL!
