Yep. Two of my buddies in Life Sci can't get in. I got lucky because I happened to be on at the exact minute the department opened up more seats...

Is it like 500? 200? 100?

Because sometimes it feels like there are 1000 people who need to pick courses and they only let 10 people on mugsi at a time to do so.
I emailed UTS and they replied!

The limit for MUGSI is 500 students. The limit for SOLAR is 250 students.

0t10, britb, crazyfree, feonateresa, goodnews.inc, nerual, resh.jyoti, ytpos all say thanks to Abid.Hasan for this post.

It seems like there should be a post-SOLAR mental recovery course. It sounds brutal.

thats it? wow that is such a small number.

Especially when 3000+ students are trying to get on. No wonder FUGSI crashed.

Are they kidding? Who even designs a university system like that? That wouldn't even work for most highschools.

The system is ancient, so I'm not surprised at the capacity.
