It's a second year course due to the material that you learn. It's actually supposed to be taken in third year.

No, the material is easy enough hence why it's labeled as a level II course. But if you do a thesis later on, you will probably forget most of the statistical calculations you will need when analyzing your data.

Nope. This stats course is tailored for Science students (which I should mention does not include Math students although they are apart of the Science Faculty). You only learn what you need to analyze data that you would obtain from research.
