Taking Japanese

<p>Hi, I signed up for japanese 1a. Is there some sort of 1ax class I need to sign up as well? All I see is the 1 lecture time for it. Thanks for any help. =)</p>

<p>you didn't sign up for 1a, you signed up for 10a. only the 1<em>/1</em>X convention is used for classes taught through the linguistics department. yours is NOT.</p>

<p>Japanese</a> Studies Program</p>

<p>haha yea theres no 10a/10ax...series goes 10A, 10B, 10C for first year</p>

<p>in the first couple days of lecture, the professer will send you an email with a list of days for your conversational class, which is generally one hour three days a week, and youll pick a time and show up (mazumi is a wonderful ta if hes still ta'ing)</p>

<p>once you get to that class, youll have your first conversational class, and then if there are more than (usually 12) students, they do a "lottery" to see who gets to stay in that section time and who has to move...</p>

<p>so the lottery goes you pick chopsticks and whoever gets the black one has to move (at least thats what it used to be)</p>

<p>after that youll either move to a new section or stay with the one you just went to for the rest of the quarter</p>

<p>its a weird process but you get used to it</p>

<p>Whoops sorry for the typo. Thanks for the clarification. I'm going to try to take the placement when I get there and hopefully not take the course.</p>

<p>wait i read this post and now im confused</p>

<p>i want to take italian and was giong to sign up for 1A/1AX
is there some other class im supposed to be taking?
i didn't see any other series
im planning on taking it. for 2 years</p>

<p>japanese has its own department, so it is run differently</p>
