3rd and 4th year courses
Hey, is it true that third and fourth year courses are basically the same in terms of level of difficulty? Would it be advisable to take fourth yr courses in 3rd year? Thing is most of the interesting third yr courses aren't being offered in my program this year, and I'm not interested in the most of the ones left over. So I was thinking to just take some fourth year courses in addition to them.

what program? It actually depends on your program, sometimes 3-4th year is a breeze but for most others, its the most difficult because thats the 12-16 month internship and getting hired after graduation period.

Although the difficulty of 4th year courses tends to be about the same, the workload is much more difficult.

I've experiences that with Anthro, English and CSCT classes. I've heard the same for most other faculties and programs.
