Summary: Taking STAT 2507 in your first year can help ease the workload of your second year, due to the large number of required 2000 level courses.
Taking STAT 2507 in your first year can help reduce your second-year workload, which could include as many as seven required 2000-level courses for Computer Science students. [1]
The course also covers concepts that overlap with COMP 2804 (Discrete Structures II), so taking STAT 2507 beforehand can make COMP 2804 slightly easier.
Alternatively, since STAT 2507 isn’t a prerequisite for any other required COMP courses, you can also choose to delay it until third year if you prefer a lighter first-year schedule.
