I spoke to a counselor yesterday about it, and she said I could always try to add the class too if it's full. I'm just concerned about the wait list... Each class has a 20 person wait list. The teacher only has to honor it on day one though... Has anyone ever had luck adding into anatomy?
I would definitely check daily because last semester I had to drop my A&P class at the last minute and it didn't take long for someone to snatch it up! We don't have too many A&P classes either, a couple during the day and a couple at night. Registration just opened for us last week and 2 of the classes are already full.
I'm sure this is common for every school. I'm current in basic human anatomy at VCU and it's so hard to get into the class: you have to be a specific major or have an approved degree track, and then you have to register before everyone else gets to. I actually had to get a health adviser to add pre-nursing track to my degree just so I could register for the class.. (I was freaking out xD). I feel the worst for non-degree seeking students because they are prioritized at the bottom of the professors' lists and have to attend all of the open labs the first week to try to get into one, in the off chance that someone doesn't show up to class on time or drops the class. And then from there they choose based on which student has the highest GPA and if they have taken the class before or not.

I'm currently going to school at Sierra College in Rocklin, CA.
Why don't colleges offer more a&p classes??? I feel like I'm never going to get into the class since there are so few open... It's only day one of registration and I'm watching the classes fill up already. I can't sign up for classes until Sunday... Is it this way at every school?
