All it means is that you have to complete 1B03 before 1BA3.

Yes its still full... but Im unsure of what I want to do cause If i take the second physics I cant take french anymore... so I dont know yet.

Btw have you heard anything new about anyone changing the 1BA3 times to not clash with MATH 1C03?

lemme think about this... you have:

1st: math, math, compsci, astron, french
2nd: math, math, physics, french, something else...

if you want to keep french, do this:

1st: math 1X03, compsci, astron, physics, french
2nd: math, math, math, physics, french

I also gave up french for this reason :S but it does work... you just gotta get rid of the other unknown something else...

UM. the other option is to get out of french, save it for the 6 lonely electives math&phys has in second.

and call the departments when you know what you want... they'll open stuff up for you.

I know! i'll PM youu!

My options are:
1. take french - lighter... I know everything they could possibly teach me
2. take astron 2X03 and something else. - just in cas my pride won't let me take a 1st year course

I'm debating the two.. My french is so rusty... I used to be fluent... and now... i'm slow at it. :(

Man... if I hadn't had such a crappy French teacher throughout all of elementary school, I probably could have been fluent too. I think I learned more French in grade 9 than I did from grades 4 to 8. :(

Yeah. No worries. I never learned much french in elementary school. I had a fantastic french teacher in grade 9 and took it all the way to grade 12 (that and I was in IB and I had to).

But back on topic, french is full now. Try getting into physics first. Worry about french later. Physics is requires, french is a pleasure course. Besides, if you take french, that means you have to drop either comp sci or astron... two very wanted courses.

Lol, yeah. But there are so many students in university compared to highschool. Even if you had 250 students in your last year (I'm using mine as an example) That means 6% of students were taking French. If the numbers translate to university, that means there are HUNDREDS of students that would want to take French.

15 people is quite a lot compared to my highschool. We had like 15 students for 2 years. That's like 7-8 students per grade. Then again, I was in extended french. Fun times! ^-^

I really, really wanted to take Sociology 2C06, Deviant Behavior, but it has been full ever since MUGSI opened for me. I still check it a couple of times everyday just in case a seat opens up. If anyone plans one dropping it, could you please give me a heads up?
