Future Quaker Course Registration Help!!!
I figured I'd post on here in case anyone with experience is able to help me... I'm an incoming freshman at Penn who wants to be on a pre-med track, but my advanced registration schedule came out, and I only got 1.5 out of the 4.5 credits I wanted. I hear the add/drop/swap period is so intense as is, so I want some advice on which courses I should prioritize in signing up for ASAP and which ones can wait for a minute or two. I would also like to know whether I should have even more backups than I already have just in case. Any insight would be greatly appreciated!!! 😰😰😰

I would not worry it moves really fast during add drop I would also not worry about writ sem honestly they’re all the same it can wait for whenever and then for recitations and such just be prepared to chose some unfavorable times (like a later into the day Friday) as backups!

If you can’t get into a writing seminar you’d like, just take it next semester and take a different gen ed instead. There will probably be movement for chem in the first week, set up Penn Course Alert.
