Econ 302 is a different story 'cause it's more or less the last class you need to take before you graduate. But who the fuck can tell me how 51/90 spots in Econ 301 are already filled? At the same time 402, 426, 435, 455, and 482 are about half full or not even.

I am a big time slacker and don't have >3.0 CGPA but I can't see how it's even possible to fail an Econ class. Seriously those who fail a class should have a chance to register for it only after everyone else has had their turn. Fuck, I am gonna go to the advisor and tell him to get all re-takers out of my classes.
not sure .. if serious .. do you honestly think an advisor is going to kick all the people retaking classes because you said so? I'm not really sure why you think those spots are yours .. if they have an earlier reg time than you well then they have priority pretty simple, I wanted a lot of courses that filled up before my reg time too, sucks to be me, maybe its time to step my shit up and get a better gpa?

Quick question what does 1XX mean? I have credit for a Math 1XX but I'm not so sure what that means.

Right now I'm taking:
STAT 270
POL 101W
PSYC 100
CMPT 441

Working on getting the WQB stuff so I can take my other courses.

And 384 doesn't exist. If you mean 381, pretty easy class, but two group assignments to do. If you mean 484, I'll cya there (if I don't drop it).

Tentative schedule is BUS 207, BUS 393 and PSYC 102. Might just take it easy and do that, or I might do BUS 484 as well.
Oh i mean 381 yeah haha, but it got filled so not doing that anymore.
GL with 207, i absolutely hated it... I'd avoid Matadeen.

If you read my earlier post, you'll see I'm so upset because it's the lowest GPA (probably around or below 2.0) 4th years who filled up the econ 301, buec 333, etc spots and are most likely retaking them. My point was they took the spots of 3rd years with good (>3.0) or at least OK GPA.

Based on what I've experienced so far you have to be beyond retarded to fail an Econ class. Even if you've never attended a single lecture and write random nonsense on your assignments/exams you'll still pull up at least a C-.

If it is a transferred course:
It means you get credit for that category of a class as a 1st year course. e.g. math 1xx would equate to a 1st year math course and therefore satisfy your Q requirement.

if you are short say 1-3 credits for a 3rd year economic course (min60credits), what are the chances that the advisor will put you in? (class or waitlist)

or are they very anal about the requirements?

nope, as long as you are within reasonable bounds then you can get in. Say you have 54 credits and the upper division courses need 60, you will get in.

How do I know? Happened to me, but i still got the courses.

I'm pretty fucked for my classes. Registration on the 27th, and the classes I want are restricted until Saturday. I managed to get someone to save my one of my classes though. Jeez man, those first years and their July 11th reg. dates, seems like an eternity ago
