Timetabling
This time tabling thing is such a pain in the bee-yu-tee-tee! After 2 years of being spoiled of having a perfectly fitting timetable spoon-fed to me, the sudden freedom of having to choose every fine detail of my courses is overwhelming. This is one of those situations when you don't know if you should be happy or sad.
One the one hand, in first and second year, I had absolutely no choice of what courses I would take, but at least I didn't worry anything about conflicting classes. Now, all of a sudden, I can take whatever the hell I please, whenever, wherever, with whomever. But the task of making my own individual schedule is a big ass headache!
Scheduling both fall and winter term courses to have no conflicts, under this new "flexible" ECE curriculum, with a whole bunch of rules, is not how I liked to spend summer nights. The good news is, they are coming along. But I still need to spend a few more hours on it. And everything is dependent on every other section; if only one section fills up and I don't get in, my entire timetable collapses. This drives me to the conclusion that I should wake up at 6am, the day of registration, when the online ROSI registration opens. *sigh*
I have to plug my super-programming genius Mueez for making this timetable generator/conflict resolver thingy. Yikes! if you can make something like this, you're pretty much set for graduation. The tool really does make things easier for ya. Check it out.
