There might indeed. That being said, I just spoke to a buddy of mine from waterloo who spent the last week touring around europe. Italy, switzerland, germany, the works. It's not a bad idea. The only sad part about this bird course is that the mark I get won't actually be visible on the transcript, just a pass/fail. Oh well.

If the university will not pay you- act as a paid tutor to the other students. You know work expands to the time allotted - this means that if the course is too easy for you you will not allot time for preparation and you will fail. You will have to stay in Sweden until you pass - what a shame. Can you not be a paid T.A for the course and then write the exam and do the assignment at the same time.

I heard that Lund is pretty cool :), I suggest other students of Waterloo take 350 and 341 in Lund. It is a big big mistake to take them in UW. UW ruins our lifes. Good luck man.
