The registrar's own records: 32 grades over 3 terms, Fall 2021 to Fall 2025. Every instructor is pooled here.
What is inside that record
No summer session is in that record.
The table below splits them, and term averages across those 3 terms ran 3.18 to 4.00.
Historical grades for all professors, across recorded terms. The course summary above includes all professors.
- A+ 2 · 6.3%
- A 16 · 50.0%
- A- 3 · 9.4%
- B+ 2 · 6.3%
- B 4 · 12.5%
- C+ 3 · 9.4%
- C 1 · 3.1%
- D+ 1 · 3.1%
- P 1 of 33
Percentages are of the 32 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes: passes (P).
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.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FALCE-ROBINSON, JULIET A reviews ↗ | 3.51 | 3.50 | 32 | 3 | 66% | - | 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
Reported assignments across instructors and terms. This term's syllabus may differ.
What the work looks like
- Problem sets mentioned, no number given, 1 mention in past reviews
Based on 2 reviews; source checked 6 days ago. dibs counts only what a review actually states, so a kind of work nobody mentioned is absent rather than zero.
In Springs
No grade records for this course in the 3 Springs covered, back to Fall 2022. This grade history does not establish current or future offerings.
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.

Seats over time in Spring 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.
