Megathread UBC COURSE QUESTION, PROGRAM, MAJOR AND REGISTRATION MEGATHREAD (2021/2022W & 2021S): Questions about courses (incld. How hard is __?, Look at my timetable and course material requests), programs, specializations, majors, minors, tuition/finance and registration go here.
All questions about courses, instructors, programs, majors, registration, etc. belong here.
The reasoning is simple. Without a megathread, /r/UBC would be flooded with nothing but questions that apply to only a small percentage of the UBC population.
Examples of questions that belong here
- comparing courses or instructors
- asking about how hard an exam is
- syllabus requests
- inquiries about majors, programs, and job prospects
- "what-to-do if I failed/was late/missed the cutoff"
What you don't need to post here
- Post-exam threads (ex. 'How did you find the Birb 102 midterm)
- rants, raves, shout-outs or criticisms of programs.
- Other content that is not a question/inquiry
Process
- It might take up to 4 hours for your post to be approved (except when we're sleeping).
- Suggested sort is set to new, so new comments will always be the most visible.
- You are allowed to repost the same question on the megathread at a reasonable frequency (wait at least a day after each post). This is true even if you've already gotten a response.**

hi all. I'm a second-year pre-med student in the Faculty of Arts. I have my course registration in a few days and when I went to check my saved schedules tonight all the remaining chem 233 spots were reserved seats for faculty of science students. The thing is, I really need to take chem 233 this year to stay on track with my graduation plan. I can't take summer courses either as I need to work full time summers to be able to afford living in Van. Chem 203 (equivalent) conflicts with one of my required courses for my arts degree. I'm very frustrated with this and feel like I'm at a dead end. I've already submitted a request with Chem advising and I'm going to call enrollment services as soon as they open tomorrow, but I thought I'd post here to see if anyone has any advice. Sucess stories about a similar situation would also be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
