Separately, it has finished 400 of the 3,592 courses on its current checking list for this term. Future-term coverage is incomplete, so a course with nothing here may simply not have been reached yet. Back to Fall 2026

The registrar's own records: 181 grades over 8 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 8 terms ran 3.08 to 3.97.

Historical grades for all professors, across recorded terms. The course summary above includes all professors.

  • A+ 3 · 1.7%
  • A 95 · 52.5%
  • A- 45 · 24.9%
  • B+ 16 · 8.8%
  • B 14 · 7.7%
  • B- 2 · 1.1%
  • C- 1 · 0.6%
  • D- 1 · 0.6%
  • F 4 · 2.2%
  • P 3 of 188
  • I 4 of 188

Percentages are of the 181 letter grades. Grey bars are non-letter outcomes: passes (P) and incompletes (I).

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.

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.

What comes first

The chain dibs can see is 2 courses long before ENGL M104E. Read from Fall 2026, because dibs has not read a class page for ENGL M104E in Summer Session A 2026 and a department can change what it requires. This is a floor, not a deadline: dibs has not read a class page for ENGCOMP 2 and ENGCOMP 2I, so the real chain can only be longer than this, never shorter.

Counted in courses rather than quarters: dibs does not know which of them a department lets you take together.
