I just discovered that next year, i will have two courses in the same time slot. I supposed to take one of them (statistical physics) this year (third year) but due missing prerequesite which i'm taking now, i'm unable to. These courses are offered only once a year. i can't graduate next school year if i miss any one of them. I really don't want to be another year behind just for one course. What should i do?

thanks!

Andrew

Second, talk to your advisor.

And third, posting conflicting stories under different egos on various threads totally undermines your credibility.  I don't know if you're Joe the 2nd year Ph.D. humanities guy, or Andrew the 3rd year statistical physics guy, but the people you're asking for help feel like they're being duped when you do this sort of thing.

Well, if it's actually a troll, allow me to suggest that around here we don't make accommodations for wusses who can't be in two places at once.  If Hermione Granger could do it, you can do it.

Clearly the OP can be two people at the same time, so why can't he take two classes at the same time?
