Full Stack vs normal Java Script?

If you check in the "Tracks" area, you find two courses of JS with 50+ hours of study involved.

I was under the impression that Full Stack covered a wider amount of subjects, but actually has less learning "time" required.

Can someone familiar with JS recommended which to take or explain the difference in courses offered.

*I'm almost done learning the basics or HTML, was going to invest some time into CSS next.

The full stack track includes other modules for node.js and other back end tools to create a full stack application from what I can tell from reading the description. I would guess the best path would be to do the javascript track first since anything you do there would be completed if it is an overlap course in the full stack track.
