What comes first

dibs has no class page for MECH&AE 157D, 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.

From the registrar's catalog

Lecture, two hours; laboratory, four hours; outside study, six hours. Requisites: courses 105A, 150A, 157 or 157W, 171A. Limited to seniors. First in two-course aerospace engineering capstone design series. Study of aerodynamics, trajectory analysis, propulsion, computational fluid dynamics, flight control, and instrumentation. Students work in teams to begin their two-term design project. Laboratory modules include structures, trajectory analysis, aerodynamics, propulsion, and sensors. Letter grading.

Seats over time in Winter 2027

Read once so far, so there is no line to draw yet.

What turns this into a chart

A second reading is what turns this into a chart: courses come round within about three hours, and a lecture somebody is watching goes to the front of the pass. Watching is on the lecture's own page, not this one.

How readings and alerts work

Dated seat counts can be available even when hourly check history is missing. Gaps do not show whether seats changed between observations.

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.
