more advantage to take higher level course?

<p>is it? like do we have any advantage except for those who want to major in certain fields)taking math50H instead of 50?</p>

<p>I know I am going to struggle with IHUM and PWR that I want to take easy classes in others. I am not going to major in engineer or others that require heavy loads of math and science. Also I got 5 in AP Chinese but because I do not know how hard the classes will be at Stanford am I allowed to take a level lower than what they assign you to after the placement test? thanks</p>

<p>About the 50/50H question, the H series is intended for math majors. If you are planning on studying science or engineering, 50 series is for you. Though by all means, feel free to go to the first few meetings of the 50H series and check it out. You won't be the only one doing that, and the size of the class will drop by 70% or so in the first week as people switch over to 50 series.</p>

<p>thanks Sly, you have been such a great help in these forums. I am really greatful to people like you</p>
