courses-- what is the difference? the descriptions are all the same

<p>I don’t understand how I am supposed to choose courses when the descriptions are all the same. For example: introduction to philosophy 1 and introduction to philosophy 2 both “introduce some of the major problems of philosophy” yet they don’t overlap. How do I know which one to take? Is it just a matter of which one is available?</p>

<p>PHIL200
A course treating some of the central problems of philosophy: the mind-body problem, freedom, scepticism and certainty, fate, time, and the existence of God.</p>

<p>PHIL201
An introduction to some of the major problems of philosophy. This course does not duplicate PHIL 200.</p>
