Chill out.

Rule of thumb: if you have a question, figure it out yourself from information on the website. If you have a ridiculously specific question, make a time to see the subject coordinator. If you want to see a subject coordinator, don't attempt to do so when 5,000+ new students are all wandering around the uni.

Didn't they have a stand of course advisors that were handing out appointment cards?

There was a table in the foyer at the Spot that was surrounded by a crap load of people. If you managed to wait long enough, they'd give you an appointment card with date + time.

Maybe that's why so many people kept asking us for appointments: we had a table set up on the ground level of the spot foyer. :P

Nah, I think they all thought you looked like course advisors.  :P

It took ages to get through that enormous cluster of people in the Spot, but eventually managed it.

My favourite session I went to was the Physics one, the guy talking, Roger, was highly amusing even if his ridiculously lame puns wanted to make you bash your head against the nearest wall.
