Paul Quimby is a second semester freshman who is trying to choose a major. He's decided he wants to be course 6-3 and is excited to plan out his remaining 3 years at MIT. Paul needs a tool to help him do this, so he's decided to try out our program. Paul must first specify that he wants to be Course 6-3 to ensure that he fulfills the requirements. He then must input the classes that he's already taken (and is taking) for the first 2 scenariossemesters. From this starting point, he needs to create a map. Paul uses the automated features of the program to generate a schedule. He then makes manual adjustments based on classes he doesn't want to take together and classes that he wants to take with his friends. He also wants to go out for the baseball team in the spring, so he wants to limit his spring semester to 48 units, but he's okay with taking up to 60 units in the fall.

Paul is now a junior and 2 of the classes he was planning to take in the fall have a conflict, so he must postpone one. He logs in to the program. He first marks and updates all of the classes he has completed over the past year. He decides which class to keep, and notes that the other cannot occur in the Junior year fall semester. He then uses the automated tool to help him generate a new schedule.
