Always strive to learn something useful. --Sophocles

Yikes, you're getting hit by all of it at once! Can't you take Underwater Basketweaving or something just so you have the necessary classes in the right places? One of my co-workers, also dependent on financial aid, is having to take 3 classes/9 hours also (along with a private tutor Spanish class and 20 hrs/week work at the library). She's already stressing and classes haven't even begun. Does this mean you'll have to take an extra semester since you can't get both classes (now being offered at the exact same time) taken care of this semester? My sympathies, Wayne.
