Ok, I just finished registering my university courses and I planned on getting the first year Jap course buuut...it was full after less than 30 minutes of registering. <_< So, I have two options. Either try to take it in 2nd year or take some lessons outside of school. What do you guys suggest?

why not take it in your second year but while you wait do some outside learning... Very Happy

you can better prepare yourself for the class... Very Happy

I've thought of doing that, but the thing is that course is an all year course and if I take it I can then go for my minor in Jap studies buuuut, it might interfere in other courses. I dunno, hopefully my parents will go for the private stuff.

if it's not too late, go to the class anyway and talk to the professor. Let him know you have a genuine interest in learning (as opposed to someone else who may just be there for the credit). He can either expand the roster to allow you in or bump you up on the list of waiting students if someone else decides to drop it after the add/drop period ends.
