O I think you're referring to BSB 147. Yeah you might be right. Both are huge though.

It's the one on the right as soon as you enter the main doors of BSB. Sorry! I don't know the room number.. haha

But yes, both are equally enormous...

Really? I could have sworn some of the lecture halls in MDCL are larger. Maybe BSB 147 has more seats per square meter or something :p.

Haha, oh no wait, you're right

"The biggest lecture hall at McMaster seats 600 students (MDCL-1305)"

Having had classes in both BSB 147 and MDCL 1305 I would say the MDCL one definitely seems larger. I think the MDCL one holds like 600 or something, the BSB one is definitely large but I don't think it can hold as many people.

This site is really useful for information about classes in general as well as sizes of lectures/tutorials/seminars, etc.
