<p>After enrolling into my classes, I just noticed that the finals time for two of my classes are only 1 minute apart!!!</p>

<p>Chem6A final ends at 2:29pm and Math20b starts at 3:30. </p>

<p>I really don't want to risk dropping the classes because I know now that every single class is booked and the wait lists are super long. I got into Math20b and am #4 on the wait list for Chem6A. </p>

<p>I don't know where the official finals location is for both classes...are they usually the same as the class it self? And college finals usually made of all 200 lecture students or is it by discussion groups? If they take place in the lecture halls, I have to get from York to Center Hall in 1 minute! If they take place in discussion rooms, that's a bit better...they're both in warren lecture hall. So from your experience...are finals usually proctored in the lecture or discussion halls? </p>

<p>Also...how lenient are professors in allowing the students to take a final with another class? Or leaving early...coming in late?</p>

<p>2:29 and 3:30 is…an hour’s difference. o_O And I have never heard of finals starting at 3:30, are you sure your times are right?</p>

<p>Finals are proctored in large lecture halls. They’re usually in the same place as lectures but sometimes they’re moved to larger locations (like Mandeville) so you have more space to take your final. They’re pretty strict on you taking the final with the class. General policy is they let people arrive late up until the first person turns in their test.</p>

<p>@momosky OH, my mistake… it starts on the dot at 3!</p>

<p>…then you would have 30 minutes to get from one final to the other, which is normal. Yes they normally take place in the lecture hall. You can leave as early as you want if you finish early.</p>
