<p>Face it. You’re a cog in a machine. Get over it and accept your position!</p>
<p>What are the time blocks normally for classes? How much time do you have between classes if you have two consecutively?</p>
<p>you have 10 minutes which is enough time, classes are either 50 min for 3 times a week or 1hour and 15 minutes for 2 days a week</p>
<p>^ I thought it was 2 hours for two times a week? 
</p>
<p>I guess it depends on the class.</p>
<p>i have a 2 hour class 4 days a week
QQ =(</p>
<p>oh yeah well I know for eng comp 3 and astro it was 1 and 15 min but I heard some classes are 2 hours…</p>
<p>some generalizations:</p>
<p>south campus = 50 minutes 3 times a week (plus typical 50 minute discussion once a week)
north campus = 1 hour 15 minutes 2 times a week, with or without additional discussion
if north isn’t 1:15, it’s 1:50 (with or without discussion)
languages are 50 minutes 5 times a week.
seminars are either 3 or 4 hours once a week.</p>
<p>and there’s other random classes like 2.5 hours twice a week or 2 hours once a week or whatever. depends.</p>
<p>but, classes will either start at the hour, or half past the hour, and they will let out at 15 past the hour, 45 past the hour, or 50 past the hour. so you’d either have 10 minutes, 15 minutes, or 40 minutes between back-to-back classes, if you don’t have any gaps.</p>
<p>Engineering</p>
<p>2 hours 2 times a week + 1 hour discussion once a week</p>
<p>Does anyone know if night classes are offered?</p>
<p>how do you forward your @ucla.edu mail to another email?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>A little bit of searching around is not that hard. :mad:</p>

<p>how is the wireless at UCLA?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Horrible! :rolleyes:</p>
<p>de neve dogwood and cedar has wireless everywhere they just installed them this past spring break, the connection is pretty good but not as fast as my wireless router 
as for everywhere else, you’ll get wireless in the lounges and you can bring a wireless router for the room so you get wireless in it which is actually really useful because you can move your laptop around your room, on your bed and still have internet without moving the wire everywhere</p>
<p>
Not sure, but every engineering course I’ve taken has been 2 hour recitations, and sometimes 3 because there is too many problems to solve.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>I guess it varies by department. I just browsed through MechE and it shows that most of the discussions are two hours long. On the other hand, most of the EE discussions are one hour long. </p>
<p>For example:</p>
<p>MAE 171A: Intro to Feedback and Control Systems: Dynamic Systems Control I</p>
<p>2 hour lectures twice a week + 2 hour discussion once a week.</p>
<p>Course Description: Lecture, four hours; discussion, two hours; outside study, six hours. Requisites: courses 107, 107L, and 181A or 182A. Introduction to feedback principles, control systems design, and system stability. Modeling of physical systems in engineering and other fields; transform methods; controller design using Nyquist, Bode, and root locus methods; compensation; computer-aided analysis and design. Letter grading. </p>

<p>EE 141: Principles of Feedback Control</p>
<p>2 hour lectures twice a week + 1 hour dicussion once a week</p>
<p>Course Description: Lecture, four hours; discussion, one hour; outside study, seven hours. Requisite: course 102. Mathematical modeling of physical control systems in form of differential equations and transfer functions. Design problems, system performance indices of feedback control systems via classical techniques, root-locus and frequency-domain methods. Computer-aided solution of design problems from real world. Letter grading. </p>

<p>They both teach about the same thing really, and they use the same book too. So why have a different amount of time for discussions? I guess they make it up by stating that EE 141 requires one more additional hour for outside study time over MAE 171A.</p>
<p>Maybe MAE is just helpless. You poor blokes. :(</p>
<p>say you test out of comp 3 with the ap english score. Is there another english class you can take.</p>
<p>You have to either take 2 Writing 2 courses or a Writing 2 and a seminar.</p>
<p>de neve has wireless now??? dangit >.<</p>
<p>btw, about the night classes- generally no. main lectures are daytime or early evening. my latest lecture has started at 4. the latest i’ve gotten out of lecture is 6. discussions can be later (i’ve had one at 6pm) as can labs.</p>
<p>yeah the wireless is pretty good in de neve but only dogwood and cedar for now, its faster than the speed in the lounges</p>
