Q:How necessary is it to take the 5 core classes for IR by sophomore year. It's looking like I may take one of them my senior year. Is that absolutely shunned upon?

No way! I had seniors in some of my core classes. I did, personally, take them all before I finished sophomore year, but that’s because I wanted all the background knowledge before taking the upper level “track” courses. It’s pretty important to complete Principles of Econ if you’re going to do the Political Econ track, but other than that, these classes are just meant to give you the proper theoretical background. POLS0400 is the second most valuable, imo. Missing one isn’t going to destroy you though.
Claudia might be a little annoyed, but sometimes you can’t help it. The big problem for you is going to be doing an honors thesis, but no one wants to do that in IR anyway. Except me. I’m a nut.
