I am desperate to get into some sort of 2nd year electives. I need 2 for the next semester but they all seem to be full. I don't know what to do. Any suggestions? Thank you.

Keep trying, there's still roughly a month before the drop/add deadline. People are still writing exams and are therefore not managing their courses at the moment.

If you don't get into the course closer to the drop/add deadline, try emailing the prof/department. Sometimes, you will be lucky and they will open up a spot for you depending on which course/department it is!

The department of Social Sciences/Humanities have 'space forms' you fill out to get spaces in full courses...

E.g. http://www.humanities.mcmast er.ca/...s/forms/space/

WOOHOO I got some electives! Thanks for your suggestions, everyone!
