the registrar has this letter grade only this term

The registrar's own records: 72 grades over 3 terms, Fall 2021 to Fall 2025. Every instructor is pooled here.

What is inside that record

No summer session is in that record.

The table below splits them, and term averages across those 3 terms ran 3.79 to 3.88.

Historical grades for ARAIZA, JOSE EDMUNDO, across recorded terms. The course summary above includes all professors.

  • A- 12 · 16.7%
  • B+ 3 · 4.2%
  • B 4 · 5.6%
  • C+ 1 · 1.4%

Percentages are of the 72 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes.

How the non-letter outcomes are counted

They are excluded from the GPA entirely rather than scored, because counting a P as a 4.0 would be a fabrication.

Why Predicted is not the Raw average

“Predicted” is shrunk toward the course average, which is itself shrunk toward the department, so an instructor with a handful of students sits near the course mean rather than topping the list.

Seats over time in Fall 2026

How each lecture has filled since dibs first saw it.

A dot is a reading where something moved: the seat count, the status, or the waitlist.

What a flat run means, and where a line starts

Flat between dots means it did not drift, it held and then jumped, and a line starts when dibs first saw that lecture rather than reaching back before it existed. A lecture that has never moved draws a flat line across the whole window, and one with two or three readings draws a line joining them, which is too few to read a trend from.

Lec 1 · Araiza, J.E. and Rieber, C. · 25 of 25 · 1 over enrolled

Same seat count, but the status went closed to waitlist and the waitlist went 5 of 5 to 1 of 5 over about 2 months

25 of 25 · no seats left

All 38 readings say 25 of 25.

dibs read 168 of the 558 hours its hourly record covers, 30%, and did not look in 390. dibs had no hourly record before 8 Sep, which is the other 532 of 1090 plotted.25 of 25 enrolled at the newest reading, 55 minutes ago, and no seats left. Seats from 17 Aug 12:32 to 1 Oct 21:22, 25 to 25. The line is flat across the whole window: recorded enrollment counts match. Changes between reads may be missed. dibs read 168 of the 558 hours its hourly record here covers, 30%. An hour marked as read confirms a check, not continuous monitoring. That check recorded no change; changes between checks may be missed. For 390 hours dibs was keeping a record and did not reach this section. Nothing before 8 September at 16:00, where this section's record starts, has a read either way, which is 532 hours of this window. Where the drawing is faint or broken, that never means the readings are doubtful. It means the stretch between them is unaccounted for.
How readings and alerts work

A reading and an hourly record are different things, and most charts here hold more of the second missing than present. dibs has taken readings of a section since long before it began keeping an hour-by-hour log of when it looked, so the empty stretches are dibs saying it was not keeping that log yet, not that it looked and found nothing. That is the age of the record and not a fault.

Seat counts show the last successful read, not live availability. Refreshes can be delayed by request limits or upstream interruptions. Watched sections receive priority, but an hourly update for every section is not guaranteed.

The registrar can change a seat count between our checks. Alerts depend on dibs detecting an opening and completing delivery; a quiet watch does not prove that no seat opened. Check the registrar before enrolling.
