I never took Japanese in hs so i don't know how much you've learnt, but if u can still recall making basic sentence structures and write a simple short essay you should do ok since it just builds up upon that.

^how bout 101? would I be able to squeeze by by just knowing hiragana characters.. I barely remember anything tbh, like everything is really really rusty...
I'd say hiragana and a bit of katakana is all i really remember, and some really really basic expressions like konichiwa, konbanwa, itadakimasu, shitsuraee shimasu, boku wa, onamae wa nandesu ka? that kinda stuff

U should try taking the placement exam for Japanese to see where your Japanese level's at as well. I think it's a requirement to do so if u have prior knowledge to Japanese anyways :S

^hmm, that doesn't sound too convincing... I won't be able to take 100 though considering its only for those who haven't taken japanese 11 in highschool... ah well..

^i thought that limitation existed only for Japanese 12 students. That being said, I know someone that took Japanese 12 and they got by 101 ok and she's in second year Japanese too. Dunno about your case though. Good luck with whatever decision you end up with | |

^i've heard psych won't be as easy as u think it would be... and I've had mixed opinions on both courses, so best bet would be to do your background check on the prof and start with the lower one whichever that one might be...

I agree with instantnoodles that psych 101/102 is not as easy as some students predict.
Regardless, I enjoyed it quite a bit and I am a science student.
