First Year Comp Sci Courses
Well I am trying to do my courses for first year and I have run into a few problems :S


Problem 1:
Comp Sci 1FC3 (a required course outlined in http://registrar.mcmaster.ca /calen...91.htm#ID18630) is FULL on SOLAR.

Can it be interchanged with one of the other comp sci first year courses (i.e. 1MD3 or 1TA3)?

Problem 2:
To register in Comp Sci Co-op do I take the Eng 1EE0 course as outlined in http://registrar.mcmaster.ca /calen...08/sec_189.htm for all Eng students? Or is Comp Sci Co-op different from the Eng Co-op?

Problem 3:
Why are there no half decent electives? *Assuming i have to adhere to the Eng electives list (since im in the Eng department)*

Thanks in advance,
Wesley
