Eff.

Good news though is that the Chem 1AA3 lab section I wanted was one of only like, two available. I wanted 69/70/79/80/89/90, and I figured I'd go for 89, and lo and behold, it was available. Scrolling through that list of "fulls" though was scary.

Good luck to the rest of you.

But does refreshing the screen actually work? Like, refreshing the "Maximum number of people logged on" one? I always just Ctrl + W'd my was back to the Mugsi home page, then pressed enter on the Mugsi link.

Yeah, same.
I'm starting to wonder whether being a part-time student might be the way to go just so I don't have to deal with this thing every summer D:

I can tell you that SOLAR is a thousand times better than ROSI (other than waiting lists).

Got into SOLAR, and then when I tried to press 'Undergrad Course Selection', it won't work?! WTF.

I should go to 4chan and tell them to DDoS/raid the server. Then hopefully it will blow up and they'll be forced to upgrade .

It's completely unacceptable that a multi-million dollar RESEARCH UNIVERSITY can't find a better way for its students to do course selection. It just boggles the mind.

No it doesn't. Clearly everything goes into research. The university needs to make money somehow other than tuition.

I foresee that in the future, when the eager young ones ask me what the toughest part of university is, my reply will be...

spoiler: I won't even reply. I'll just start going through a PTSD attack and whispering "SOLAR..." in a fetal position
