Well it appears that either solar is not registering that I took biology in grade 12 or it does not realise that kinesiology is in the faculty of science. What should I need to get into that course and i have the prereqs, solar is just messing up
I answered your question here: http://www.macinsiders.com/showthread.php?t=2294 1

It took me 10 hours to finally get into MUGSI and SOLAR. Yeesh.

I was stopped in a "No Stopping" zone. It was this little side road beside a library in downtown toronto and I got wifi there, so I decided to check solar (LOL). I got into solar and saw that Kin was "avail" so I quickly started adding the core/lab/tut when the parking lady pulled up behind me. Oh well, I deserved it. blah

Talk about committed!! Then again I would do the same, trust me Kin is worth itttt, the labs are the best labs I think I'll do in my whole life!!

SOLAR wasn't too bad for me this time around. I got into relatively quickly and managed to fix all my courses to times I wanted. So overall it was a big success.

If its a required course (like having to finish physics 1B03 by end of second year is required for life science) then contact an academic advisor and they should give you permission into the course (because they should still have some holdback seats maybe)

At least that's what I did for Physics 1B03 this year

So many posts. So slow on dial up.

Here's my MUGSI tale ladies and gentlemen.
At 3:53 PM in Abu Dhabi, the United Arab Emirates, I logged on to an Internet cafe. I opened MUGSI, logged on, realised that was stupid and logged off. I waited thinking that 4:15 would be a better time to pursue the cause.
I think I was wrong in doing that.

I sat on this Goddamn website for over 4 hours at various locations. When I wasn't sitting, my relatives in Mississauga were. Very very annoying.

I got on much later. Much much much later on a slow dial up connection. I found that I could only have L06 as my Chem 1AA3 lab and this happens to be the very lab that conflicts with 3 of my other courses.

I would punch the screen but I'm paying $1500 for it so I refrained from doing so.

AND..AND...WHO WANTS AN 8:30 PSYCHOLOGY TUTORIAL? Why would so many people want that? (Rhetorical; rhetorical!)

I'm not even gonna bother waiting for Dr. Lock. I'll try but I ain't waiting.

I've actually been able to get on fine a couple times today already, I think instead of it CONSTANTLY being full like yesterday, it'll just be in intervals. lol

After more than a month of struggle, i got in and I'm sure you can get into KIN 1Y03, be patient. I checked everyday when SOLAR was open and todai i finally got it.
Ugh, I hate you, lol... It was full everytime I tried, checking every day (including yesterday) except when it was down.

Oh well. Fingers still crossed.

If on the mcmaster timetable, the instructor's name is not listed for a core class, do we assume it is the same prof as the one mentioned in the core class above it?
