Problems in College

[chaoswolf]

Damnit! Seems like you can't go anywhere in this country without having some type of college background, right? Well, getting into it is a fucking bitch! I don't give a damn if you call yourself the queen of devil's tower...I can't get into De Anza and it is pissing me off. Is going to college really worth the (late) registration and the eternal waiting lists? School starts on Monday of next week, and as far as I can tell, there's like...no classes open for latecommers. Just because I turned in the signature form late doesn't mean shit to me, just that I'm probably not going to make it this quarter.

I thought high school was bad. Now I find that College is like eternal damnation, where you have to take uber-classes just to make a living in this bizzare country. Nobody cares about your homework load or how many classes you take, just as long as you get it done, right? That's what I thought.....but there's a problem: what if all the classes you want to take are completly loaded and have a 20 person waiting list? I, personally don't think it's worth it.....but that's just me. mdlbear and flower_cat will so disagree with me.

I highly reccomend that if you are registered to add classes, you show up on the first day with class schedule and classes you want to get in to in hand... there are a handful or two of people who get dropped because they aren't at the first day of classes. (its the rule, even if you're registered, you MUST be at the first day of classes.)

So your chances are pretty good if you poke at the administration people.
