<p>If I'm position 5 on the waitlist for Chem 1A lab, am I likely to get it? Should I start attending lecture anyways if I'm still on the waitlist when school starts? There's other lab sections open but none of them fit my schedule ._.</p>
<p>You should definitely attend lecture and talk to the professor/GSI about getting into a lab section that fits your schedule. Sometimes they may open more up or they may have a system where you can trade sections with other students. They try to accommodate you so you can get into a lab section that fits your schedule. That being said, you probably won't get into the lab if you are waitlist #5.</p>
<p>Thanks for the response ! yeah i kind of suspected so i dropped the waitlist and just enrolled in an earlier one :o</p>
