Full grade history for PHYSICS 5B

Enrollment over time

Recorded whenever the numbers change, starting from the first scrape — so this deepens every hour rather than reaching back before Dibs existed.

Only 1 reading so far. The enrollment sweep runs hourly and writes a point whenever the count changes, so this chart fills in over the coming days.

How big this course usually runs

Final enrollment per term from four years of grade data. Summer excluded — different population, different pass structure.
