2. Monday labs are not recommended because you need to prepare during weekend. Best to do it on Tuesday so you can ask your friends.
3. 1 hour break between 3-4 lecture is recommended.
4. 7 hours + with lab and tutorial in the morning is a pain
5. 8:30, 12:30, 4:30- classes, way too many breaks in between, you will find yourself skipping the lectures constantly.
6. Make sure you have Fridays from 1-7pm free to study for test and exams, most are on Friday evenings.
Just some tips
My timetable is attached, rearranged for maximum easiness.

It would also be better to finish it early before your workload starts to pile up.

Okay thanks for the help! I think I'm going to switch it to first term.

I just added 1EE0 to my schedule. My question is: Why do the slots differ in length?
1EE0 1D is only two hours a week as opposed to 1EE0 1E which is 4 hours every Saturday.
I've also read the description regarding 1EE0. It says that $100 will be required and added to our Fees.
I remember registering the course during the first time Solar opened.
But it did not appear on my time-table and was not on my course-list.
I've added it again today and it showed up correctly but the $100 fee did not show up on my Payment Agreement. I don't know what to do with that... Help... Please...

It doesn't matter where the course is on your schedule. In September, you'll have to sign up for which class section you want to take it in in the engineering co-op office.

So, having it on the schedule does not matter? Even if we haven't signed up for it?
Do they update the Payment Agreement at once? When exactly does the reg for it start?
Thanks a million, in advance!

Not at all.
All the notes for 1C03 are posted ahead of time. And even then, they are pretty useless since in the Labs, about 10-20mins at the beginning they go through what you need to do for that particular lab, and for tutorials, they do the same. You just need to practice Solid Edge and drawing either way, and quite honestly, if your prof is Cheng, your better off not going lol

I'm fairly satisfied with my first semester, although my second semester seems crazy to me, I'm planning on changing that though.
I'm open for any suggestions for both terms.
Also for some reason I feel like I'm missing classes in my first term or maybe its just that my second term is so busy.

Dam. They really screwed you guys over with the econ 1b03 timings this year lol.
Anyways for 2nd term:
Move MATLS 1M03 to C03
Move Math 1ZZ5 to C01 (childs is awesome!)
Move 1D04 to C03
That will help alot, you will end off much earlier. Repost the changes once you make them, if you make them
EDIT:
for term 1, i suggest moving Physics 1D03 to C02 (aka. later starts on monday and thursday )
