You are looking at Winter 2027. Enrollment for it has not opened, so these are the registrar's early listings. dibs holds 1,951 sections for Winter 2027, read 4 days ago. Separately, it has finished 986 of the 3,481 courses on its own sweep list for this term. Terms nobody is enrolling in are swept one a night in rotation, so a course with nothing here may simply not have been reached yet. Back to Fall 2026

CHEM 14AE

General Chemistry for Life Scientists I--Enhanced

4 units Physical Sciences

Lecture and discussion.

Winter 2027: 1 lecture and 7 discussions. Nothing here is open. The oldest of these readings was 6 days ago.

The registrar's own records: 991 grades over 4 terms, Fall 2021 to Fall 2025. No summer session is in that record. Every instructor is pooled here. The table below splits them, and term averages across those 4 terms ran 3.07 to 3.25.

  • A+ 30 · 3.0%
  • A 264 · 26.6%
  • A- 162 · 16.3%
  • B+ 113 · 11.4%
  • B 157 · 15.8%
  • B- 80 · 8.1%
  • C+ 45 · 4.5%
  • C 70 · 7.1%
  • C- 23 · 2.3%
  • D+ 10 · 1.0%
  • D 14 · 1.4%
  • D- 8 · 0.8%
  • F 15 · 1.5%
  • P 2 of 998
  • I 5 of 998

Percentages are of the 991 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes: passes (P) and incompletes (I). They are excluded from the GPA entirely rather than scored, because counting a P as a 4.0 would be a fabrication.

By instructor

Predicted GPA, raw average, sample size, terms, A range and the workload reviewers reported for every instructor with a grade record in this course
Instructor Predicted GPA Raw n Terms A range Workload Winter 2027
DEWEESE, DORY reviews ↗ 3.16 3.16 619 2 46% - not teaching it
CARAM, JUSTIN RYAN reviews ↗ 3.22 3.22 372 2 47% light not teaching it

“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.

dibs measures outcomes: grades, seats, how fast a class fills. For what a class is like to sit in, BruinWalk has the reviews.

Reviews for CHEM 14AE

What comes first

dibs has not read a class page for CHEM 14AE, 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.

In Winters

Ran in 1 of the last 4 Winters, so it turns up in Winter sometimes rather than dependably.

From the terms dibs holds, which start in Fall 2021 and exclude summer. A department can run a course in a quarter it never has before.

From the registrar's catalog

Lecture, three hours; discussion, two hours. Preparation: high school chemistry or equivalent background and three and one half years of high school mathematics. Requisite: completion of Chemistry Diagnostic Test. Enforced corequisite: Life Sciences 30A or Mathematics 3A or 31A or score of 48 or better on Mathematics Diagnostic Test. Not open to students with credit for course 14A or 20A. Study of foundations of chemistry. Discussion of foundations of quantum mechanics and how these principles can be used to understand atomic and molecular structure and properties; how molecules interact; and properties of inorganic, organic, and biological acids, bases, and salts. Biological, environmental, and socially-relevant examples are used to illustrate central role that chemistry plays in our world. Emphasis on developing problem-solving skills and collaborative interaction and learning. P/NP or letter grading.

Sections in Winter 2027

You enroll in the discussion, not the lecture, so a discussion's status is the one that decides whether you get in. A lecture can read open while every discussion under it is full.

Seat counts as of : the oldest of these 8 readings. The registrar publishes hourly and dibs reads what it can each hour, so a row can be older than that.

Final enrollment, averaged across each term's sections: between 144 and 318 a term over 4 terms, summer excluded, most recently 302 in Fall 2025. That is the shape across years, not this term, which is above.

Seats over time in Winter 2027

Read once so far, so there is no line to draw yet. A second reading is what turns this into a chart: courses come round within about three hours, and anything you watch every hour.
