QUESTION: What are your thoughts on taking a 200s course as a first year? This is a question to be answered in general, but to be more specific PHIL 226
If you've never taken a PHIL class before, I don't think 226 is a great option, depending on your major and everything else you're doing. If you want a really interesting and fun 2nd year course, try PHIL 202 (Gender Issues) with Shannon Dae. It was fantastic! Source: Phil major
I took a second-year English course as a first year, and third-year course as a second year. I really don't think the "suggested" year level matters at all for Arts courses as long as there are no prerequisites.
My first year had 3 200 level courses as part of the schedule. I took 3 100 level courses later on as electives during hard terms to make them slightly easier.
