<p>Hi everyone,</p>
<p>Incoming freshman going for Mass Comm. major.
I will need to (not sure which semester) pick between 4 history classes as a prerequisite requirement. Does anyone have experience in one, more than one, or know people who do? </p>
<p>I'd like some advice on which class to take:</p>
<p>History 7B
History 124A
History 124B
History 131B</p>
<p>I know the course descriptions, but I'd like some personal feedback.
Thanks very much!

<p>Bit confused - others, please correct me here. Aren't courses labelled 100+ upper-divison, and available only to juniors and seniors?</p>
<p>No, upper division courses in many departments are open to freshman though it depends on the individual course itself. I don't believe history courses need prequisites so if you want to you can start in upper division.</p>
<p>How are lower and upper division courses different in terms of difficulty, work load, etc?</p>
<p>Yeah, good question.</p>
<p>Definitely take history 7B if Litwack teaches it. He is a Pulitzer Prize winner.</p>
<p>is there a way to find out classes taught by Nobel Prize winners? Just curious.</p>
<p>Take 6A, now.</p>

<p>Search the internet (wikipedia is good) to see who is a Nobel laureaute. See if they are teaching a class. Presto! :)</p>
