1. Do you think he will pass English 101?

2. Do you think he would pass English 101?

Thank you very much.

Yeah but....also: Do you think he would pass it...if he took it? Maybe he has still not decided to enrol in English 101.

Only the first question is correct.

This question is used to know the probability and possibility of something that will happen in the future.

The second question has the error of grammatical sequencing. To show action to come, simple future tense is used (wii pass).
