Only the really popular classes are harder to get into and the basic type classes are large enough that there usually is room. If there is a class you truly want to take, then email the professor and explain that you are concerned about getting in and what do they suggest.

What you can do is go to the course schedule and look at previous semester at a class you want and see what the class enrollment number was. If the class only takes say 12 or 15 students that will be tough to get into until you are an upper classman. But if there are more than 50 slots, you likely won’t have a problem.
