01 / Ask dibs

Less tab-hopping.
More “that works.”

Ask the question you actually have. dibs can work with your audit, course records and fixed hours to compare options and help shape a plan.

  • A path through your remaining quarters. Connect your audit requirements, course choices and prerequisite order in a plan you can review.
  • More than a grade average. Ask about exams, papers and other work types where course evidence is available.
  • A roadmap toward medical school. Put your remaining science courses and labs beside your target schools’ published preparation guidance.
  • Answers you can check. See the supporting records, dated seat readings and gaps that still need a closer look.

Upload your audit for questions about your own requirements. Plans are drafts; your counselor and MyUCLA remain the authorities on degree progress and enrollment.

Can you plan out the rest of my quarters so I can graduate by spring 2029? I'd like good grades and as few papers as possible.

Degree roadmap: one plan and two revisions.

Here is a partial draft for your remaining quarters.

Fall 2026, recorded in progress: CHEM 14BL, PHYSCI 107, MSC IND 55. This assumes you finish them successfully.

Winter 2027: CHEM 14CL, PHYSICS 5B, PHYSCI 111A, PHYSCI M178. 13 known units.

Winter 2027 needs attention: The course units for PHYSCI 111A have not been read; the exact quarter total still needs confirmation.

Spring 2027: CHEM 14D, PHYSICS 5C, PHYSCI 111B, HIST 1C. 14 known units.

Spring 2027 needs attention: The course units for PHYSCI 111B have not been read; the exact quarter total still needs confirmation.

Fall 2027: PHYSCI 148 (VILLANUEVA, CLAUDIO JAVIER, projected), PHYSCI 110, CHEM 153A (LANNAN, RYAN, projected). 12 units.

Winter 2028: PHYSCI CM123, PHYSCI C127, PHYSCI 140. 12 units.

Spring 2028: PHYSCI M180A, PHYSCI 147, PHYSCI M164. 14 units.

Fall 2028: PHYSCI 165, PHYSCI M141, PUB AFF 10. 14 units.

Your preferences: PHYSCI M178 and PHYSCI C127 have the highest recorded course-wide averages among these choices; they do not predict your grades. Reviews report papers for PHYSCI CM123, a tradeoff against your preference. Unread work types do not establish a paper-free alternative.

Audit check needed: the readable audit does not establish whether you still need HIST 1C, PHYSCI 111A. Their placement remains provisional.

Preparation to confirm: Recorded preparation remains conditional or unread for CHEM 14CL, PHYSCI 111A, PHYSCI 111B, HIST 1C, PHYSCI 140, PHYSCI M164, PHYSCI 165, PHYSCI M141, PUB AFF 10. Missing completion or minimum-grade evidence and source ambiguities still need confirmation. Future and in-progress preparation depends on successful completion with the required grades. Prerequisites still need confirmation for PHYSCI M180A.

Access and credit to confirm: PHYSCI C127 in 28W has recorded enrollment restrictions that cannot be checked against the available profile. PHYSCI M141 in 28F has recorded enrollment restrictions that cannot be checked against the available profile.

Projected instructors follow repeated past teaching assignments; they are not confirmed for that quarter.

Still needed: qualifying credit for LETTERS & SCIENCE MAJOR RESIDENCY REQUIREMENT still needs confirmation.

Future offerings and eligibility are not confirmed yet.

  • CHEMISTRY AND BIOCHEMISTRY 14CL OR 30BL: 4 known planned catalog units against 3 remaining. The known-unit estimate covers this line.
  • CHEMISTRY AND BIOCHEMISTRY 14D OR 30B: 4 known planned catalog units against 4 remaining. The known-unit estimate covers this line.
  • LETTERS & SCIENCE MAJOR RESIDENCY REQUIREMENT: 15 units remain; which planned courses qualify is unresolved.
  • SIXTY(60) UNITS OF UPPER DIVISION COURSEWORK: 51 known planned catalog units against 51 remaining. The known-unit estimate covers this line.
  • MINIMUM 180 UNITS FOR A UCLA DEGREE: 79 known planned catalog units against 20 remaining. The known-unit estimate covers this line.
  • PHYSICS 1A, 1B, 1C, 4AL, AND 4BL: OR) PHYSICS 5A, 5B, AND 5C, with PHYSICS 5B, PHYSICS 5C. Provisional route coverage; audit acceptance remains conditional. Alternative routes are not added together.
  • Historical Analysis GE: HIST 1C. Category candidates; match the exact course to the audit before treating the subgroup as satisfied.
  • Social Analysis GE: PUB AFF 10. Category candidates; match the exact course to the audit before treating the subgroup as satisfied.
  • The one-outside-elective allowance is already used by MIMG 101; remaining major electives stay within PHYSCI.

Some courses can contribute to more than one requirement. A covered catalog-unit or candidate count is not a completed degree requirement.

Grade and paper tradeoffs

Grade history is missing for 3 choices.

  • PHYSCI CM123: 1 paper, said by 2 reviewers. Its adjusted course-wide historical GPA is 3.92 (188 graded students across 4 terms, every instructor dibs holds); this is not a future-grade prediction.

Paper sources and read dates appear below. These findings describe the records available for the selected courses; they do not establish the best possible plan or fewer papers than alternatives with unread work types.

  • PHYSCI 165 reviews: 10 quizzes, said by 2 reviewers. Stored excerpt: “10 Weekly quizzes: 70%”. 6 reviews read 2026-09-06.

No work type met the reporting threshold in the reviews read for: CHEM 14CL (102 reviews), PHYSICS 5B (198 reviews), PHYSICS 5C (202 reviews), HIST 1C (78 reviews), PHYSCI 148 (2 reviews), PHYSCI 110 (2 reviews), CHEM 153A (246 reviews), PUB AFF 10 (70 reviews).

No work-type finding is attached to these roadmap choices: PHYSCI 111A, PHYSCI 111B, PHYSCI 140, PHYSCI M164, PHYSCI M141.

An absent paper signal is not evidence of zero papers. The paper preference remains unverified wherever no explicit zero-paper reading is reported. Review links are course indexes; stored excerpts do not establish a particular future instructor's assignments.
