My school rant: everything. There's just too much to do and I don't know if I'm going to get through it all. Sorry, that was cryptic and annoying.
But I definitely sympathize with registration obnoxiousness and the prerequisites dance. *rolls eyes at registrar's office* I transferred schools during undergrad and had to deal with the registrar who didn't think one year of Calculus at a school on semesters equalled one year of Calculus at a school on quarters. They SHOULD be equal because both are one academic year of Calculus. But the new school (the one with quarters) made me take the third quarter of Calculus. So idiotic. Plus the class sucked.
No, I get what you mean about the too much to do and it all gets piled up, and yeah, it feels like wading through a nice rough ocean, while stuck in quicksand.
Well, school was a long time ago for me, but I remember one frustration being *registration lines:* waiting forever in a poorly-designated line, only to get to the head of it and to discover it was the wrong one.
It also galled me to pay $75 for a Statistics textbook (or Biochemistry, or Ethics, or Baptist Polity, etc.) that I knew I was never going to use again in my life. And then to be allowed to sell it back to the bookstore (completely unmarked) for $10.
The joy of everything being online now. No lines and we can sell books back online for almost what we paid for em. Oh I can symptahise with the book prices thing too much. Books for maths, sciences and engineering all cost way more than the ones for the good all liberal arts.

I don't understand your school stuff in the least, but I hope everything works out for you the way you want them too! *hugs*

For what I see Calc. is really a bureaucratic problem. I hope you will be able to sort things out!

Uch, yeah hate being a test subject too, was that in high school. Least I don't pay for it, but it's a waste of time.
