sophomore year
College year two
Sophomore year is the second year of a four-year program, typically in high school or college.
The term is primarily American.
It sits between freshman year and junior year, often characterized as a period when initial excitement has faded but graduation remains distant: I declared my major sophomore year.
The sophomore slump describes a decline in performance or enthusiasm during this middle stretch.
