Who is a "sophomore"?
A sophomore is a student in their second year of study in a four-year academic program, such as in high school or college. At this stage, students have completed their introductory courses and are starting to take more specialized classes related to their field of study. Sophomores often have a better understanding of the academic expectations and campus life compared to freshmen. This year is also a time for further exploration of interests, with many students beginning to narrow their focus on a specific major or career path.
