So how many level 1 courses should I take including the courses 10 Level 1 courses I took in first year? Are there any links in the undergraduate calendar that discuss about this topic? Will this affect my transcript when I applied to grad schools? Please let me know and will be appreciated

Pretty sure grad schools only look at your GPA of the last or last two years of your undergrad. What you did in first year doesn't count for anything.

You "should" take as many as you want.

You can take a maximum of 48 first-year units to count towards your degree. If you take more beyond that, they just don't count towards your degree. Not sure if they'd still count towards your CA.

If you take a huge amount of first year courses, some grad schools look down on that because you took a bunch of low-level courses, but in the vast majority of cases it's not a problem.

you can always run your degree audit to check units outstanding and such. Its program specific I believe

Really some grad schools will look down if i took may first year courses. What about if I just did well in my third and fourth year will just be that they only matter.

It entirely depends on the school and program. You can't generalize.
