They have to try ~~out~~ each class to see which one suits them best.
Try out is for competitions, IMO, but it seems to work for others.

Definitely not audit. That's for accounting.

They have to give it a try in each class to see which one is proper for them.

In the States, many usniverities and colleges will allow people to "sit in" on the class, for no fee [or for a reduced fee]. The student receives no credit for the class, and the instructor is not required to read any papers or exams written by the observer. This is 'to audit' [hear] a class. The term may or may not be applicable to the original question here.

I must agree with your stiking of 'out' in the one sentence. That is an unnecessary word that just clutters the thought. It's probably because we often "try out" for something, such as the cheer squad, which also seems unnecessary to me. But we do have the word "try-outs". But I digress.
