Which course should I take?
I'm not sure which courses I should take...2O06 Political theory, a second year course OR first year Antrhopology, 1st and 2nd semester.
I'm first year. The only reason I took political theory is because I couldn't find anything to fill second semester. I mean, wtf how does that work? Almost EVERYTHING is a credit for 1st semester. GR.

I don't recommend taking a 2nd-year course while in first year, especially not a full-year course. That's just because the expectations are higher, and going into first year already takes a bit of adjusting, so you don't want to put too much stress onto yourself. Look into other course listings/subjects that might interest you and I'm sure you can find an elective course for 2nd term!

Definitely take first year anthro if you can. Its supposed to be fairly easy and you want to go easy on yourself first year.

I don't suggest taking a second year course in first year, especially if it's a full year, and especially if it's theory. Political Theory is tricky even for Pol Sci majors. Take the first year Anthro, it will be much easier.
