It just depends if you think 7 or 8 has harder working people since they set the curve and how you compare to the people. If you're premed or planning to go to graduate school, I've heard grades are more important than difficulty in cases like these (unless you can do well in the harder class...) so go with whichever you think you'll do better in.<br><b>References : </b><br> It doesn’t really matter since, like you said, the curve really places you in the same area relative to how everyone does.
