		 There are some very interesting psychology courses by Dr. Day such as psych 2b03 and 2ap3. I haven't taken any of those myself, but a LOT of people told me his classes are very interesting.

		 Hsci 2l03/2ll3, or I guess the kin equivalent is 1a03/aa3.  So much fun and comprehensive.

		 Health Studies 2D03-Mental Health (Now Health and Aging 2G03) was probably the most interesting class I took, looked at mental health from all kinds of perspectives, one of the reasons why I decided to get into the mental health field.

		 Take a look at all these answers. They are all ridiculously different because peoples interests are different. Print off a list of all the electives available for you to take (available on solar, no preqs etc) and then read the course descriptions. Choose the one that interests you most....

		 Back in first year there was a cool astronomy class before my math class. Not sure of the course code but from the times I sat in, it seemed pretty interesting
