The Latin Upper School Academic Affairs team sent out a form on Tuesday requesting student feedback regarding the Add/Drop experience. The general Add/Drop period for the second semester took place from December 16 to December 20 and January 6 to January 9. Academic Affairs sent the feedback form because of the changes made to the add/drop period this year: before, the second semester period stretched from mid-December through the first week after Winter Break.
The feedback form, which must be completed by 4 p.m. on January 17, consists of questions regarding the changes made to the form and why students chose to use it. One key change to the process is that the registrar randomly selected students off of the waitlist instead of using a first come, first serve system.
Sophomore Alex Stamos used the form to add “Computer Science Principles 2,” and he noted the simplicity despite needing to switch blocks of “Finance and Math 2.” Alex also plans to fill out the feedback form.
“It was a very simple process. The form was very streamlined, and I liked it compared to last year,” he said.
