<p>I'm thinking about attending some classes just to see what everyone is doing and what the teacher is teaching. </p>
<p>Of course it will probably be a big 50+ or so people lecture.</p>
<p>waste of time…?</p>
<p>I’m probably going to audit o-chem III at some point…I’m pretty interested in it, but now that I switched out of chem I’d probably prefer just listening in on lectures rather than stressing out.</p>
<p>In big lectures, you can usually just drop in…You don’t even have to officially audit. At my school 12-18 credits are the same price, and I usually take above 15 credits…so auditing would cost me money (it would place me above 18 credits).</p>
<p>I want to audit some science courses I don’t have time to take. It also saves me the stress of worrying over my grades in those audited classes, but i still get to learn and discuss. :D</p>
<p>No I will not. My old professor advised against that idea because you have to pay for class at the school I attend. Why pay for a class you cannot get credit in?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You sure? You can’t just walk in and sit down? Do they check to make sure you are on the roster before you enter the classroom or something? </p>
<p>LMAO</p>
<p>
This doesn’t make sense. You don’t pay for the class when you audit.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You do at most schools–it counts for the semester’s credit load. You don’t pay for the class when you drop-in as a guest. This is, of course, not allowed, but it’s impossible to monitor in large lectures. If you tried to drop in on a 15 student class, you would get kicked out.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>You’re really confusing me. When you’re auditing a class you shouldn’t expect credit and don’t need to pay anything either. I can easily walk in to a class room and sit down and no one will notice that I don’t belong there unless I’m acting weird, it is a test day, or something.</p>

<p>I think people in this thread are aware of the best types of courses to audit in. </p>
<p>I’m thinking about auditing a class where there are only 9 people…[/s]</p>
