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<\/p>\n

\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014\u2014<\/p>\n

hey there,<\/p>\n

love it when first years look at all these new courses that weren’t offered in their high school and they get so excited<\/a>. i remember being like that?oh, how times change<\/a>.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

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<\/a> – not all classes have them.<\/p>\n

and that’s all there is to it! the challenge will be actually consistently attending your classes – now there’s<\/em> a problem that has stumped me for years.<\/p>\n

cheers,<\/p>\n
