When my Facebook NewsFeed gets taken over with people’s STTs, worklist and final timetable, I know it\u2019s that time of year again.

\nEndless hours spent creating worklist after worklist, only to discover that you in fact don\u2019t have the necessary prereqs, or all the classes you wanted are already full. Gotta love registration time. Here are a few handy websites to take a load off your registration stress. (For us second year year kids, registration is right around the corner. For those in other years who have already registered, this is a little late but at least you got your courses already. Just keep these tips in mind for next year.)<\/p>\n

PAIR<\/a>
\nIt\u2019s often the case that you need a few extra credits but don\u2019t know which elective to take. Or you\u2019re looking for those \u201cGPA booster\u201d courses, because honestly who doesn\u2019t want a higher mark? Or maybe you\u2019re wondering which prof gives the best marks. Here\u2019s where PAIR (Planning And Institutional Research) comes in. It gives you everything you need to know about every single section of every single course at UBC since 1996. From who taught the class to the class averages to the grades distribution in the class. So look up your classes on PAIR and find out for yourself. And for those mandatory classes, seeing that previous course averages are 60%, definitely motivates me to study. Click Data Access –> Grades Distribution.

\nMy-UBC-Course-Is-Full<\/a>
\nI\u2019ve heard quite a bit about this service although I have yet to tried it for myself. Basically, when the class you need is full. You pay a fee of $5 fee per course and if a spot opens up in your desired course, they shoot you an email or a text. You register and voila you\u2019re in it!

\nGPA Boosters<\/a>
\nSFU and UBC courses reviewed by fellow students. There isn’t many reviews right now, but check it out anyways or even better, get the ball rolling and post a review!

\nRate My Professors<\/a>
