Separately, it has finished 400 of the 3,592 courses on its current checking list for this term. Future-term coverage is incomplete, so a course with nothing here may simply not have been reached yet. Back to Fall 2026

The registrar's own records: 10,387 grades over 16 terms, Fall 2021 to Fall 2025. Every instructor is pooled here.

What is inside that record

3 of those terms are summer sessions, and summer sessions are counted here.

The table below splits them, and term averages across those 16 terms ran 3.12 to 3.54.

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

  • A+ 60 · 0.6%
  • A 3,459 · 33.3%
  • A- 2,010 · 19.4%
  • B+ 1,576 · 15.2%
  • B 1,338 · 12.9%

  • F 41 · 0.4%
  • P 15 of 10,442
  • NP 1 of 10,442
  • I 39 of 10,442

Percentages are of the 10,387 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes: passes (P), no-passes (NP), and incompletes (I).

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.

Grade records describe outcomes. For what a course is like to take, read student reviews written on dibs below or follow the separate external review link.

What comes first

The chain dibs can see is 2 courses long before LIFESCI 7C. Read from Fall 2026, because dibs has not read a class page for LIFESCI 7C in Summer Session C 2026 and a department can change what it requires. dibs has read a class page for every course in it.

Counted in courses rather than quarters: dibs does not know which of them a department lets you take together.

From the registrar's catalog

Lecture, three hours; discussion, 75 minutes. Enforced requisite: course 7B. Organization of cells into tissues and organs and principles of physiology of organ systems. Introduction to human genetics and genomics. Letter grading.
