[nabs-l] Advice needed

Hello:
If it were me, I would do one of three things: 
1) take the class anyway, ignoring what your adviser says. They are there to advise you, not dictate which classes you can and cannot take.
2) evaluate the necessity of taking the course. If the course doesn't help, and it would just be silly to take it, then I would not take it.
3) talk to the professor who teaches that class, find out the parameters and information which you may need to know to succeed in that setting. If it doesn't appear to be overwhelming, take the class or audit it.
I hope that helps, it's just what I would probably do if I were in your shoes.
Best regards
Michael

You have the opportunity to take the course in the spring but, your adviser believes you do not want to even though you have told them repeatedly you want to. They dropped you from the program and said you can't take courses from that selection anymore only because of a health problem.
