<p>we've been chatting on this thing for a while, and in a few short weeks we'll be going to school together so if you have your schedule for next year post it here so we can see if by some freak accident we have any classes together</p>
<p>GTBOOKS 191 lecture: T, Th 9-10
(all of us in great books should have this together! yay)</p>
<p>Have any of you checked out mschedule.com? All you have to do is tell it what course numbers you want and it will take data from Wolverine Access and compile a list of open sections. After you select which sections you want to consider, it will generate up to ten schedules for you. On top of that you can save your schedule and make it publically available to anyone with a username. It will tell you how many people on mschedule.com have a common class and even a common section. I wish they would have told us about this at orientation.</p>
<p>But it's not a part of umich, is it? I thought mschedule was an independent thing that someone made to make people's lives easier. Thus, they wouldn't have told us about it at orientation.</p>
<p>I know it is independent of UMich, but I'm just saying it would have been nice if one of the orientation leaders had heard about it and passed on the knowledge. Although maybe they aren't allowed to divuldge such info. I liked the student advisors who were honest and didn't just stick with a UMich "script."</p>
<p>I see. Is there much work for a lab outside of class? Or is all the work done in the lab? I was just wondering since they say for every credit hour you usually have to do 2 or 3 hours of studying. If there is no extra work for it then 1 credit hour + what would be 3 hours studying = 4 hours class. I have no idea how labs are done.</p>
<p>I showed Mschedule to one of the directors of the Honors Program and she e-mailed the web address to the orientation program leaders so that they could consider distributing it to future newly admitted students. So who knows, maybe it will gain a wider audience in the future?</p>

<p>It depends on the lab. My phys 341 lab had around 3-4 hours of work a week (if I remember correctly) in addition to the 3 hour lab. I've heard that chemistry labs don't have as much outside work though.</p>
<p>Physics 341 is also a 2-credit lab. I think when I did it, it was closer to 6 hours per lab write up.</p>
<p>I think you do everything for chemistry labs in groups, so it depends on what kind of people you're with. The reason chem lab is that is probably just because chemistry requires more time for things to happen.</p>
