In the UK they oversubscribe most 101 courses, including Psych and Comp Sci. The real watershed is Junior Honours classes which are fixed places. Even 201 is very large.
- chrisseaton 8y agoOversubscribe in what sense? In that they're a bit crowded maybe - but it's not the case that they admit you to the university and then won't let you take the course, which is what this article is about. Did you go to Edinburgh? They have a US system unlike the rest of the UK.
- sys_64738 8y agoOversubscribe in that they fill the auditorium and overflow with high numbers (psych 101 was 500+ and CompSci was 250+). Many will dropout or won't make the level 2 cut. No I didn't go to Edinburgh.
