<p>THANKS!!</p>
<p>The one that you feel is the most interesting, or intellectually stimulating.</p>
<p>A lot of FWSs aren’t recurring classes every year, and they’re usually taught by a grad student, so theres no professor reputation to refer to.</p>
<p>that’s my problem. i find something interesting about each of them. should i leave it to chance?</p>
<p>Well don’t you get to choose 5 you like on the ballot?</p>
<p>Just rank them in the order of what you would like the most</p>
<p>My friend took fairytales and it seemed pretty good. I mean nobody took him seriously when he was complaining about reading Snow White, haha, but it seemed like an enjoyable class. </p>
<p>It really all depends on the professor/TA though</p>
<p>My friend was in phil1111 and said that the topics covered were pretty interesting, however the prof graded papers pretty hard so you needed to understand his feedback and ask questions. I don’t think he had to read much for the class as well, or at least the class discussion was not wholly dependent on the readings assigned</p>
<p>thanks for the input everyone. anyone else have an opinion about one of these classes?</p>
<p>It all seems so random anyway.</p>
<p>i put all my choices and they didn’t give me any of them. i ended up enrolling via student center in one of the classes that was on my list, so I don’t even know why I didn’t get it.</p>
<p>anyway, my point is that you probably don’t have a lot of chance of picking exactly one class anyway</p>
<p>there are only about 10 options that fit into my schedule. What happens if i can’t get any of those? will i be automatically enrolled in a fws that conficts with my other classes?</p>
<p>then you move your other classes…why would you not be able to get into one of those 10?</p>
<p>“i put all my choices and they didn’t give me any of them”</p>
<p>that’s why i’m worried. plus, i’m happy with my schedule at the moment. my only other option would be to take a class at 8am. i’m sure i’d get used to it though</p>
<p>i would be grateful if someone could answer my question instead of leaving a sarcastic comment. i believe i have a reason to be nervous here. i’m pretty much locked into my schedule right now and i don’t want to have to worry about shuffling everything around during the add/drop period.</p>
<p>so… is it possible to be enrolled in a fws that conflicts with my schedule? how would i deal with that?</p>
<p>The system isn’t random, it is well done. Even the cost function for the optimization is carefully planned and designed to distribute classes exactly the way they choose</p>
<p>if you consider the above responses too sarcastic, you’re in for a long 4 years!</p>
<p>relax!</p>
<p>well actually they didn’t give me one that was on my list, they gave me nothing. I had to sign up for one when student center opened back up. I was able to sign up for one that was on my original list. No idea why they didn’t give it to me in the first place.</p>
<p>You will find a FWS that fits your schedule. It may not be anything you want to take, but it will fit your schedule.</p>
<p>thanks suziechapstik! your post helped a lot.
involvedobserver: it’s not all the posts that bothered me. most were really helpfull. it was Feral24’s post that i was referring to.</p>
