So today marks the first day to register for spring semester classes! I can't believe it ...this semester JUST started. It is always a war-zone trying to get green-lighted and then allowed to let in to some classes before it gets filled up and after.
Luckily I am one of the first to choose. Normally I got my schedule down pat and my advisor just checks it off. But this time I actually needed help. I will admit in all of my college career, i've been a bit of an over-achiever. always taking the max. credits possible.
But this time I am taking the semester easy and taking the min. amount. Only because this coming fall there may be something exciting happening and I HAVE to spread my last few credits out. But I won't say what yet...I don't want to jinx it.
But picking the last few classes of your college career sucks! because a lot of them are the boring difficult ones that make you want to tear your hair out especially since you're taking 4 of those kinds at the same time.
And since i love to sleep and have to make room for my jobs, I am restricted to classes because of their time slots so therefore all my classes are mushed into 3 days :(
Anyways I am glad its over with...hopefully my teachers aren't hard... I usually check ratemyprofessor.com but a lot of my classes had the TBA under instructor. -.-
My Advice for Class Registration:
- Know what you're required to take for the year in July/Aug
- Your Advisor? Be their FRIEND! trust me you'll get perks and more attention.
- Be on top of the registration schedule
- Have backups for those classes that get closed off early
- Use ratemyprofessor.com to sway you from professors get the REAL dirt from former students.
- Know what the classes are so you don't schedule the crappy ones all in one semester. You want to stay motivated & not want to quit after the first exams!
Anyone else having registration?
