Can't register UCD Elective Modules????

adam_f

Tried to register for electives. Electives come up, I pick the one I want but then it just returns to the Electives page and doesn't register to my calendar and my summary says I have to register 2 electives even though I've already tried! What the hell is up with this? Has anyone succesfully registered their electives?
Cheers!

I have the exact same problem!

Thank god you've the same problem-maybe the systems not up and running properly? Damn it-was hoping to sneak in and register before everyone else!

Yeah I don't think it is, because for every module I register for, it says "This module is not oversubscribed: 0 person has provisionally enrolled to X places.".

Jeebus, for my 2 electives it says there's only 6 places available, so I better watch the page like a hawk, LIKE A HAWK!

It doesn't matter how soon you enroll. Everybody who registers for a module before Monday will have an equal chance to get a place on said module. Even if you're the first to register to it, you have just as much chance as the person who registers Sunday night.

If a module is over-subscribed everybody who registered for it goes into a random draw for a place. So if 12 people register for the module you want you'll have a 50/50 chance of getting it regardless of when you register.

I'm just pissed off at the fact that the only bloody elective I really want to do clashes with one of my lectures!

Aghhhhh! I'm so pissed off. There's always something wrong with the UCD ****ing website! And is it really true that we're back on the 11th of September? I thought we'd be back in 2 weeks not 4 days-the horror.....

Wahey sis system is down again. Wrecking my head how when you view the electives it doesn't say what days + times they're on at. Do you have to just keeptrying til you find one that fits or does it only display ones that will fit. Answers on a postcard please...

Oh SIS how I hate you so

Sometimes, I look back and miss the days of pens and paper as a means of communication. Paper didn't break down and drive you crazy.

Actually is working for me now. When your registering for electives it brings up where they'd be on the timtable so u can see clashes. Be better if you could only see ones that didn't clash...


Anyway picked some maths ones that say "an honour or an ordinary A1" as recommended standards so it shouldn't be too hard. My maths teacher would be so proud

All good for me too
Now to decide which ones to do...

This is proving difficult . Now when i want to register for any elective module i get this

"-2068ORA-02068: following severe error from DBLINK_CMIS_TRAP_PUBLIC ORA-01034: ORACLE not available ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist Compaq Tru64 UNIX Error: 2: No such file or directory"

instead of the timetable. It may just be a too late at night at the moment.

One other thing is, how do you know if you've sucessfully "provisionaly" enrolled, because when I did it earlier there was no evidence that i choose any elective

It works for me now. Pitty I couldn't get that CS module I wanted. Stupid time-table clashes....:mad:

Have to do decision support systems instead.

Wohoooo finally got it workin this morning and it turns out I've no classes on Friday which means 3 day weekend for semester one! P.S. I got banned for life and I don't know why? And if an administrator is reading this I'm sorry but I had to re-register please don't ban me again!My life will be over if you do!
