timetable change experience
This question is for the upper years
when you made changes to your timetable did you manage get all the timeslot that you wanted?
What are the chances of getting everything the way you want it to be

I've successfully changed my scheduled to the way I want it 2 years so far. Both times I was changing stuff around until the week school started, a couple weeks before the drop/add deadline.

As for the chances, it depends on person to person. You can take the experience of everyone that replies to your question and pool them together. So some simple math and find out the chances of getting everything the way you want it to be.

I think Jeremy's point was more that there is no way to determine your chances of getting the schedule you want in a meaningful way.

But if it makes a difference, I often find that the sections I want are either full or they conflict with other classes.

Lol, you make me sound so mean :( But yeah, that's pretty much what I mean. There are so many unknown variables to the equation that's it's really impossible to figure out the odds.
