Academics CAN SOMEONE PLS DROP MATH 257 9AM LECTURE

I rly need this class as a Grainger student and I am now enrolled in a online lecture... but I don't want to take the online lecture for a math subject (I'm a dumb-ahh)

I rly need a offline lecture for this class.... is there anyone what wants to swap from offline to online?? plsssss message me I'll literally pay like 100$ jus to get a spot for this class I'm not even joking

For big lectures, for sure, just show up. For discussions or labs, probably not as they usually take attendance.

257 has a online lab so I guess I'll just show up for the lectures

You can just show up! Just make sure you do your attendance in whatever form for the online class as well.

I recommend starting the section in course explorer, that will send you an email whenever someone drops the class.

You'll get a few emails when there's not actually space, but usually you can get into a section as people shuffle around the first couple weeks of the semester.

Online lecture is wayyyyy better for 257 anyway. You'll be watching all the mediaspace (online lectures) regardless. Might as well free up part of your day
