Yes.

[Gloamglozer]

10 am Tuesday is 92% full

For Tuesday and Wednesday they are 92% full

Yes.

But if we move out of a full class, we can still get back in, right?  It only says:

Overfull and Full labels on subjects are there to show you whether you can enter a class or not. You do not have to leave an overfull or full class (your place in that class is safe), but if you do decide to move out of an overfull class, you will not be able to get back in.

No

I heard in many cases, morning classes tend to have the most vacancies.  Is this true?

So if you're a morning person, would it be best to try and cram everything before 12 pm?  Has anyone tried this?

[natty]

Mine's not too bad. I don't mind the 2 long days. And only Science 101 on Thursdays which I've heard is only important for the first couple of weeks? Hopefully I can change my Management tute to Monday (if it runs), otherwise I'll be coming in for an hour every 2nd week

But three 8am starts isn't too appealing!

Can anyone tell me from personal experience, is 3 (or even 4) hours of lectures and tutes in a row a lot? Or is it better to break them up like 2 and 1 (or 2 and 2)?

[TrueLight]

for me yes! its a lot ...i prefer to eat...although im stuck with 5 hrs in a row

[champorado]

I would say 3 is a max for me. First sem, I had 5 hours in a row (either 11-4, or 12-5 on a tuesday) and by the end of it, my brain was like mush. I have a very short attention span, so that just might be me.

also, it might depend if it's lectures or tutes. if it was 4 hours of lectures in a row, i'd probably fall asleep, since it's mostly a passive activity.

gloam:
If you move out of a full class, it goes to from full to, say, 93%. If somebody doesn't change into that class, then you can go back to that class. If you move from an overfull class, it goes from overfull to full and you can't get back in.

With the morning classes thing, I think the earliest classes and the latest classes have the lowest amount. There were over 100 macro streams last sem, and the ones that seemed the most empty were the 8am and 6pm ones. If you're a morning person, then that sounds good. I knew somebody who had to go into uni all five days (which is kinda funny for a comm student) and he timetabled everything as early as he could so he could have time to do stuff after all his classes finished.

Severe timetable clash but can't do anything about it.

MY THIRD YEAR SUCKS

[QuantumJG]

Finally have my timetable!

Anyway

Monday: 10am (Real Analysis Lecture), 11am (Real Analysis Tutorial), 12pm (QM & SR lecture), 2pm (T & C physics lecture) & 4pm (QM & SR Tutorial).

Tuesday: 9am - 12pm (QM & SR lab), 2pm (Real Analysis with Applications Lab) & 4pm (T & C physics Tutorial).

Wednesday: 9am (Introductory Personal Finance Tutorial), 10am (T & C Lecture), 12pm (QM & SR Lecture), 2 - 4pm (Introductory Personal Finance Lecture) & 4pm (Real Analysis & Applications Lecture).

Thursday: 2pm - 5pm (T & C Physics Lab)

Friday: 9am (QM & SR Lecture), 12pm (Real Analysis Lecture) & 2pm (T & C Physics).

It's a good timetable but if I could put those 9am starts at 10am it would be better, also I want to find when Arun Ram lectures for real analysis (he sounds like a great lecturer).

[dejan91]

Hmmm thought so. 3 hours would probably be the limit for me :|

Can anyone tell me what the chances are of changing my timetable around this way (the top one is what I got, and the bottom one is my edited one):



The one they gave me is horrible, and after MUCH MUCH MUCH tweaking and planning, I made this one. I'm yet to decide on which tutorials to put when but dm..

P.S. the brackets mean what number weekly lecture it is.

EDIT for shocking spelling and grammar mistakes..

EDIT (again..) just realised I'm jumping from stream to stream like there's no tomorrow! Grrrr better change that.

[champorado]

lectures on all five days? :/

most subs don't run classes on tues between 12 and 2. you can go to any lecture stream, even if it's not the one you're timetabled (not sure how it works with qm, though, since you hand in your assignments in lectures?). besides that tues afternoon tute you want, everything else looks good.
