<p>Does anyone know whether it would be advisable to take a 200 level course during first semester of freshmen year? How do these courses differ from introductory 100 level courses? Thanks.</p>
<p>Depends on what department. Be more specific!</p>
<p>For example I was thinking about satisfying one of the General College requirements by taking a 200 level anthropology course. How do you think this would be? In general all of the courses I'm talking about are along these lines (ex. anth, geog., art, hist).</p>
<p>That should be fine. I took ANTH 280 spring semester of my freshman year and didn't find it harder than any 100 class I took.</p>
<p>It depends on the professor, though.</p>
<p>Thanks heathergee. That's what I was hoping to here. Anyone else with any ideas is also welcome to reply. I need all the info I can get.</p>
<p>Nahh doesn't matter either way. Just pick one you're interested in. As far as the general ed stuff there's no real difference in difficulty based solely on the numbers.</p>
<p>What about a 400 level course your first semester?</p>
<p>I'm a junior OOS transfer student and signed up for WMST 410: Comp Queer Politics. It satisfies THREE of my general education requirements... can I handle it?</p>
<p>When I tried doing that, my counselor told me to wait for my 2nd semester so you can get used to the school first. </p>
<p>I know how desperate it is trying to figure out how to satisfy all of your GenEd requirements, but I do think it was sound advice.</p>
<p>What about 300 or 500 level math classes 2nd semester of Freshman year?</p>
<p>I'd get through first semester of freshman year first...</p>

I'm actually a high school student who intends to attend a summer session for 300-500 level math courses. I was curious if 200 level courses may be an issue, what would be said about 300-500 or if the op was just worrying.</p>
<p>You want to take 300-500 level math courses in summer school at UNC? Wow, I would not recommend doing that unless you are just a genius at math. What year are you in high school?</p>
<p>I'll be a rising junior at that time. I will have the prerequisites though... if that counts for anything.</p>
<p>Can you attend summer school at UNC as a rising junior in HS? Good grief. Well, good luck with everything!</p>

Only with special permission from undergrad admissions. That most employees at undergrad admissions aren't aware they have the power to give. I'll have to get it all sorted out.</p>
<p>Oh, ok! I hope it all works out for you!</p>
