Haha do it, whenever theres a holiday on a Monday, it would mean a 4 day weekend

I commute so coming to school for one class means 3 hours down the drain (~1 hour travel time each way).

I actually work really well on days that I don't have class.

same situation as you, i'm a commuter (the fridays off do save you some money - i bought 10 rides most of the time as opposed to monthly passes), and i just realized that transfer inquiry is a night class, now i definitely need the fridays off, i don't think i'm gonna be studying on wednesdays at all...

btw, if we are allowed to get on today, does that mean that 20 science -> health sci transfers would be the only ones picking health sci courses? because that would be so awesome...

Yes I believe so.

Slight advantage for electives.

I think we're just picking classes tonight, then sectioning happens, then we can switch around our tutorials/labs/cores.

(I could be wrong about this)

There is always a possibility that we will be locked as soon as we select health science.
and uhh, our tutorials and labs are autoslotted, we don't pick them tonight, timetables are released on august 8th, where we find out which tutorials and lab slots we got, and can then change them up as we want to, assuming space is available.
