Do you take classes for the grade or to learn?

I'm wondering what you would do in my situation.  
I'm at a community college looking to transfer so having a high GPA is very important, at this stage in my life.  

I'm not the best writer and I have to take a freshman english class next semester.  
I can take this professor that my friends said will get the easiest A and won't have much homework or I can see other professors and maybe get a teacher that assigns a lot of work and reading and could possibly learn more but yet not see the best grade.  

What would you do?  

-I want to learn, but struggling to keep up with other classes, 4 next semester, my GPA needs to be high. On the other hand if I dont learn it now, I know when I transfer I'm going to fall behind in my english writing abilities. But I need to get there first.

I do classes to learn but from what you've just said I would for sure go for the easier class. Who doesn't want an A with no effort?

Mostly to learn, but for that English class, it's better to take the easy one.

to learn. you might as well get the experience of a hard class your freshmen year before your next semester when you have to take a hard class. the learning classes help you with skills you'll need for the next class you need to take....unless you like coming out of an easy class and into a difficult one. I personally don't like the shock of everything changing in the blink of an eye-i like to be eased into it gradually. plus most freshmen classes have teachers that understand the fact that you'll need help...
