I have selected the intro to social sciences 1A06 as I intend to minor in behavioral sciences alont with my commerce degree, in SOLAR it states that the course is in term 3 (which I am uncertain as to what term 3 even is), but it shows up on my timetable both semesters as any normal course would. Any clarification on the topic would be appreciated.

Term 3 just means it's a full year course.

Term 3 = September to April (i.e. it spans the whole year)

vs.

Term 1 = September to December
Term 2 = January to April

(EDIT: Oh. Sorry for the repeat post...I posted at the same time.)

Ohhhhh ok that makes sense, I was searching all over the Mcmaster site for some clarification and signed up here for some help which I got quickly, thank you very much.

Same applies to summer as well. Term 3 is just to indicate full year.
