Freshman Seminars and Teachers

<p>Hey the choices for Freshman Seminars are up. <a href="http://www.cas.northwestern.edu/freshmen/choose.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.cas.northwestern.edu/freshmen/choose.html&lt;/a> I was just wondering if any one had any advice from past experience or anywhere else on how to choose. Also, is there any kind of website where you can go to see profiles or rating on teachers? Thanks I can't wait to meet everyone next year!</p>

<p>You can get ratings using CTECs.</p>

<p><a href="http://aquavite.northwestern.edu/ctec/%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://aquavite.northwestern.edu/ctec/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Click WCAS, then the major, then sort by professor and click the professor's name. All of the freshman seminar classes will be labeled as such. </p>

<p>You need a netid/password to login to see CTECs.</p>

<p>did you get this in an email? wasn't there supposed to be an email today, did anyone receive one? also, if a particular seminar looks appealing to us, is there a way in trying to get it?</p>

<p>Is this like a first-come first-served type of thing? Do I need to make my choices right now so I get a good class?</p>

<p>i think the choices/descriptions have always been up. but the page where we'll actually be entering the top ten still isn't open. </p>

<p>and no, it's not first-come first-serve, that'd be horrible.</p>

<p>You list your top 10 choices. Nothing to do with first come, first serve. You get them by lottery but you will definitely get one on your list. I got my 2nd choice, back when I was in WCAS.</p>
