We discuss a simplified method for computing trace anomalies in d=6 and d<6 dimensions. It is known that in the quantum mechanical approach trace anomalies in d dimensions are given by a (1+d/2)-loop computation in an auxiliary 1d sigma model with arbitrary geometry. We show how one can obtain the same information using a simpler d/2-loop calculation on an arbitrary geometry supplemented by a (1+d/2)-loop calculation on the simplified geometry of a maximally symmetric space.
