That's where a strong teacher/parent auxhillary makes a big dif. Here in 
Westbank, they have an individual who ensures that you have satisfied all 
pre-requ's prior to attending them. All the schools my two have gone to 
(Westbank BC, Edmonton Ab and Norman Wells NWT) have strongly enforced the 
pre-req per courses. If I were going to your school and lost out on a course 
because the seets were taken up by a bunch of lusers would result in a strong 
protest in writing to school principal with cc's to every government official 
that has anyting to do with education. If you have not done this then you 
deserve to miss out on courses that you would like to attend. If you are 
waiting for someone else to do it for you it won't happen! If you are put off 
on missing out on courses then I would sugest that you have a good look into 
a mirror, because there looking back at you is the reason why
