i was looking at the requirements for honours life science, and for 2010 it says you need psych 1xx3 but then below says you can take it second year. should i change one of my electives to psych 1xx3?

I was in Life Sci and took my second psych (1X03, previously 1AA3) in my second year. You should have no problem taking it in your second year. Personally I would take it this year so you have access to second year psych courses.

You don't need to take it in first year, but I'd definitely recommend that you take it in your second so that you have access to upper year psych electives.

Just so you know, it doesn't really build on 1X03, so you should be fine with taking in 2nd year!

i decided to take psych instead of english. alot of second year english courses dont have pre reqs, but id like to keep options open in psych. thanks everyone for the advice.

Yeah it's a good decision, I couldn't get into any second year psych courses last year.

they changed the rules for 2010 entry.. you need both psych and both bios
