How is this done? When I was at university, scheduling conflicts would start becoming a problem at 5 classes and be almost insurmountable at 7.
Students manage conflicts by simply skipping class sessions. Last semester, I often skipped two thirds of my class sessions. As long as you read lecture notes, do the work, and show up to tests, you're fine.
Ah, okay. This is strictly forbidden elsewhere.
Whaa? How do you even manage to get signed up for conflicting classes- is MIT's registration system set up such that it allows you to do that?
In general, MIT's registration policies are "we'll provide the rope, try not to hang yourself." On the flip side, it's nearly impossible to fail out.
Yup.
