I say the chances are pretty good.

When i first got onto SOLAR out of 9 changes i wanted, i could only make one. But, i've been logging on every 20 minutes for the last 2 hours and now i only have 2 minor changes left.

It's annoying, but be persistant!

Instead of trying to open tabs you can just change your homepage to the MUGSI address https://adweb.cis.mcmaster.ca /mugsi/li and open like 100-150 instances of your preferred brower. I did that for about 10min and it worked fine. Just be careful if you have low RAM :|

an hour gap is alright but I'd rather not have two hour gaps between my classes it just stretches out my day way too much.

That's mine. There really wasn't much I could change. All of my classes only have one core and limited tutorials. The only thing I changed was switching a tutorial that used to be at 2:30 on Monday to 10:30 on Wednesday.

I still have to add one class to Term 1 as well. The tutorial for 3A03. So I have to wait until September to see which times will be an option for that. Something on early Monday would be good since I'm planning on taking the bus in the morning every day anyway in Term 1.

I finally got on after 6 hours and it says that I am unable to access solar until the 17th because of my registration status/payment agreement. I have completed the payment agreement. Has anyone else had this problem?
