Well it's certainly going to be a long day for you but luckly your two last ones on Wed are every other week!
A few tips: bring things like granola bars and stuff to munch on between classes, easy things that don't require a lot of assembly or wrappers. And make sure you get a good rest on Tuesday nights!!

The physics lab and tutorial are every other week, so you will have it every week because they alternate. I find that after 4 hours straight, I need a break from class.
I would try and make a change.

Caaaalm! breath!
You're not the only one experiencing this!
What I think is happening is that for some reason either you didn't select your cores, labs, tutorials etc OR theres a glitch.
You can do one of two things: call the school and ask the registrar's office or wait until Monday, get on SOLAR and select all your cores, labs, etc.
Don't worry, as long as you did the whole registration, Payment Agreement thing, you shouldn't have a problem getting this sorted out.

You are waiting for me to reply with some suggestions right? haha. You have a really big schedule with almost unlimited possibilites. I can't possibly go through them all. But I can think of a few to make your days end a bit earlier and start a bit later.
For term 2, you can try to switch MATLS 1M03 to C04. Then you can change MATH 1ZZ5 to C01. Finally to alleviate your wednesdays and give you a longer sleep before your longest day, you can move Engineer 1D04 tutorial from T15 to T11 or 12.
I will now ponder term 1...

I would maybe change your phys 1d03 lab/tut. I always hate having a friday lab.
As for second term, I'd change phys 1E03 lab/tut OR eng 1D03 tutorial to Monday morning or afternoon, depending on when theyre offered.

OK MacEng! I've got a major overhaul for you! If all of these are available and you can switch into them, you will start later, not have a crazy lab on Friday afternoon, and won't have a boring 3 hour night class! Are you ready?
Switch Anthrop 1A03 to the day course instead of the evening course.
Chem 1E03 lab to L25,26,35 or 36 (all the same)
Physics 1D03 class to C02
Physics 1D03 lab/tutorial to 5,6,7 or 8
Engineer 1P03 to C02
Engineer 1C03 to C01
THERE! That should do it! Hope all of that works out for you.

Hello, guys - I'm also in first Engineering. I hate to ask, but can you look at my second semester schedule and give me any advice on how to make it more compact. But I would prefer to keep childs with math because I heard he is really good.
Thanks a lot! |

Ok Stevenback7 here goes:
Switch Engineer 1P03 to C02
Engineer 1D04 lab to L15 or 16
MATLS 1M03 to C02
ECON 1B03 to C03
Engineer 1D04 tutorial to T13, or 14
All of that will allow you to finish earlier and not have a Friday morning tutorial.
I highly suggest these switches as well:
Engineer 1P03 tutorial to any of the tutorial slots at 14:30 on Monday, Wednesday, or Thursday to alleviate from your Tuesday.
Also Physics 1E03 to C03. I would definetly do that one as it would allow you to finish even earlier! Plus who doesn't want to get off at 2:30 on a Friday instead of at 4:30? The only sacrifice with that switch is that you gain 2 8:30 morning classes :/ I personally rather do my class work in the morning that later at night.
Hope that helps!

How's mine?
Term 1 looks balanced,.. Mon-Wednesday I don't start till 10:30 (which is a plus) but don't end to 6:20pm. Why is physics so late in the day? >.>
Term 2 is just.. meh.. 8:30 start is a new adjustment.. and Tuesday is wow.
Any tips? =)
