it looks like soup should be servered first according to the wikipedia world
A multicourse meal
Most multicourse meals follow a standard sequence, with each course interacting harmoniously with those that introduce and follow it. There are variations depending on location and custom. The following is a common sequence for multi-course meals:
1. The meal begins with a thin or thick soup course, such as a bisque, gazpacho or chowder.
***NOTE***
However, an appetizer or entrée (according to the British usage of the term) served at the dinner table might also be the first course, either replacing the soup course entirely, or served prior to the soup.
Good Luck with your exam!

soup is served first. In French dining, the salad is served after the main course. I just remember this from a meal planning class I took in college. Sorry, I don't know a web source. You might try Emily Post.

I believe it is the soup first. When you set the table the soup bowl is on top of the salad plate and dinner plate, right? That would mean the soup is first, then the salad and then the main course.

The US does not follow European etiquette. So salad then soup.
In Europe the courses would be Soup, Fish, meat, sweet, cheese and biscuits followed by coffee.

I think salad, then the soup because the soup is suppose to cleanse the palate.
No link, just my guess.

Salad is considered an appetizer so it comes before the soup...
