“Hey everyone! We’ve been working on uwflow.com for the past few months -- a website where you can plan courses and see what your friends are taking. …”
[deleted]: “uwflow is pretty good. My 1 feature request: planning courses and prereq checking. Pie in the sky feature: Check if i've met my degree requirements.”
u/trolox: “… But again, it seems totally achievable to have "advisor overrides" for plans, to add rules like "Allow CO 250 to be substituted for CO 350 in all this plan's requirements". …”

“Hi, I just got my cs341 over-write from adviser. Just wondering, anyone have done 4-cs and co in one semester? Here are my course I am taking next term: cs350, cs370, cs442, cs341, co250. …”
u/mercurycc: “… Now I never took CO 250, but I took CO 350 and that was one of the harder courses I took. Quite a bit of work and the materials are not easy to learn for me as someone not that into Math. …”

300 level mathematics courses in second year... Recommended? 0 points, 5 comments
“Hey r/uwaterloo, I'm having trouble filling up my schedule with a good amount of math courses, and I've begun looking at some 300 level math courses to fill in the gaps. …”
[deleted]: “I think CO 250 is cross listed with some 300 lvls. I know it used to be called CO 350 when I took it, so it might still count. Its a course in linear optimization, i think you just need to know some basic lin alg, maybe lin alg 2.”
