CLUSTER 10CW
Data, Justice, and Society: Special Topics
Needs a grade of C or better: C- does not count, and neither does a Passed grade.
This is a year, not a class
Clusters run across three quarters, fall, winter, then the spring seminar, and UCLA counts the credit on completing the yearlong cluster: four GE requirements and the Writing II requirement. Signing up for the first quarter is signing up for the year.
Dibs only reads Winter 2027, so the later parts show no sections here: that is this term, not the sequence ending. What you keep if you take only part of a cluster is a question for the Cluster Program, not something these numbers answer.

What is inside that record
No summer session is in that record.
The table below splits them, and term averages across those 2 terms ran 3.90 to 3.96.

Percentages are of the 307 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.
By instructor
| Instructor | Predicted GPA | Raw | n | Terms | A range | Workload | Winter 2027 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| WILLIAMS, JULIET A reviews ↗ | 3.93 | 3.93 | 290 | 2 | 96% | - | not teaching it |
| PRESNER, TODD S reviews ↗ | 3.94 | 3.96 | 17 · | 1 | 94% | - | not teaching it |
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.
Workload and assignments
Work types reported in BruinWalk reviews of this course, across recorded instructors and terms. They may differ from this term's syllabus.
dibs has read this course’s reviews and none of them say what kind of work it sets, so dibs has nothing to show rather than a guess. Read from 2 reviews 26 days ago. That is the reviewers being silent, and not a course that sets no work.
What comes first
dibs has not read a class page for CLUSTER 10CW in any term it holds, so it cannot say what comes before it.
Counted in courses rather than quarters: dibs does not know which of them a department lets you take together.
