Schedules:

1.) What would you have liked to know before you applied for your classes?

2.) Was there a easier way you found out later how to get your schedule done?

3.) Is it better to sign up early or just when ever?

Anything you want to add?

     Well, look at a list of majors and think about what you MIGHT want to do. It's not easy but having a plan is the best thing you can do. I always tried to block my schedule as much as possible. However, that leaves long blocks for studying which can be good and bad. If you have one or two hours in between classes as long as you don't waste it you can be very productive and "fresh." After four hours of studying you grow tired. So, multiple one or two hour slots in your day is okay as long as you don't waste them.

Make sure you use the time schedule for getting into classes, it shows a more update view of the classes because every time you refresh the page it is current.

     Registration actually starts at 5:55 a.m., not six a.m. like they advertise. This is because everyone gets up and at exactly the same time tries to register. The servers get bogged down. It's a slow and frustrating experience, especially if you are trying to getting into popular classes. Make sure the night before you know exactly what classes you want and make sure they don't have conflicting times. Right down the SNL numbers so you can quickly type it in the next morning. Also, have backup quiz sections they don't conflict in case you don't get the one you want at first because you clicked three seconds too late.

     Don't register for early classes unless you WILL get up and go to them. Missing classes is a good way to see a GPA drop. As you get older you will know what classes you can miss out on. (There are not that many). Some are video recorded, but that's not really missing out on the class.
