What comes first
dibs has no class page for HLT POL M248, in any term it holds, that it can state prerequisites from, so it cannot say what comes before it. A page read while a class still reads Tentative does not count.
Counted in courses rather than quarters: dibs does not know which of them a department lets you take together.
