Hi Aska, I am a prospective first year at UTM and I was looking through the timetable planner and going through courses I’d like to take. I was wondering, besides lectures, what are we supposed to put down into the timetable (like labs/tutorials and stuff like that)? And how many per a certain class? Thanks (: There’s so many courses I’d like to take, I’m probably gonna be at university until I’m 40 :p

hey there,
love it when first years look at all these new courses that weren’t offered in their high school and they get so excited. i remember being like that?oh, how times change.
but don’t let a grumpy old codger ruin your excitement. you just keep that enthusiasm alive – hopefully it can carry you clean through exams.
basically, if a course indicates that it has a lab or tutorial attached to it, you have to sign up to ONE lab or tutorial section. if a class has a lab AND a tutorial, sign up to one tutorial section and one lab section. if a class has NO labs or tutorials, don’t freak out – not all classes have them.
and that’s all there is to it! the challenge will be actually consistently attending your classes – now there’s a problem that has stumped me for years.
cheers,
aska
