    I'm not gonna do your HIT for you bro.
    But what you can do is search for combinations of things in google (for colleges you haven't yet found class schedules for)
    Like Burlington County College class search
    Burlington County College courses
    Burlington County College course search
    Burlington County College courses spring 2013

    Just examples
    Once you find the page that you can search for classes... Make sure you save it, or keep it in a tab, or whatever you want to do. Chances are that school will repeat again, so you'll have that at your disposal next time. It cuts the time to do the HIT very drastically.

    The correct way to do that one is see Burlington County College and hit "Skip HIT".

    Haha, there are certainly ones that I tried to do early on in a batch and they were hard to find... end up skipping the rest of them.

    Since you probably already returned it:

    1) Google "burlington county college class schedule", click bcc.edu link.
    2) Click "Current Students"
    3) Click "Self-Service (WebAdvisor)"
    4) Click "Search Classes"
    5) Select "2013 Spring Semester"
    6) Under Subjects, select "CIS - Computer Info Sys"
    7) Under Course Number, enter 150
    8) Click Submit
    9) Record instructor name of "B Dike-Anyiam"
    10) This varies, but google "bcc.edu email Dike-Anyiam"
    11) Record instructor email of bdikeany@bcc.edu, first name Berna
    12) Leave the course search open and the newly found http://staff.bcc.edu/ web site for easy future lookups.

    Would have loved info like this when I first started Rubins, rather than snarky remarks some were giving.

    On the other hand, I probably would not have picked up on doing my own searches as fast.

    Maybe this forum's just getting nicer. :)

    It took me a bit to figure out a style and I still have problems with a lot of schools. I find "college name class schedule" seems to be the most reliable. Build up about 10 schools you are comfortable with (I answered because I was doing a lot of burlington's earlier) and then cherry pick those schools.

    The course HITs aren't as tough. You can usually easily find the catalog with "college name course catalog". The problem I have with those is the course name Rubin gives you is often not a direct match. For example, 'Intro to Computer Networks' could be under 'Computer Networks', 'Network Fundamentals', 'Local Area Networks', etc. So it's a matter of learning how to broaden your search. In this case, I normally just search on 'Network'.

    Way past my bedtime, got to get some sleep...

    It's looks as though I had been unnecessarily skipping far too many BCC courses. ...damn.

    Since I started doing them at the beginning of the month I've found the instructor hits just a ton easier. I take the course hits too literally, as you describe is definitely a bad thing.

    Enjoy your sleep.

    There's still ~260 instructor HITs up from Matt Rubin that haven't really moved much in about 5 hours if you want to take those on. I figured they'd be gone by now, but I was wrong and I can't handle any more, I need sleep.
