What students say

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

What the work looks like

  • Exams mentioned, no number given, said by 1 reviewer
  • Presentations mentioned, no number given, said by 1 reviewer

Read from 2 reviews about 1 month ago. dibs counts only what a review actually states, so a kind of work nobody mentioned is absent rather than zero.

Will it still be here

dibs read 168 of the 533 hours its hourly record covers, 32%, and did not look in 365. dibs had no hourly record before 10 Sep, which is the other 560 of 1093 plotted.5 of 5 enrolled at the newest reading, 3 hours ago, and no seats left. Seats from 17 Aug 16:55 to 2 Oct 04:42, 5 to 5. The line is flat across the whole window: recorded enrollment counts match. Changes between reads may be missed. dibs read 168 of the 533 hours its hourly record here covers, 32%. An hour marked as read confirms a check, not continuous monitoring. That check recorded no change; changes between checks may be missed. For 365 hours dibs was keeping a record and did not reach this section. Nothing before 10 September at 00:00, where this section's record starts, has a read either way, which is 560 hours of this window. Where the drawing is faint or broken, that never means the readings are doubtful. It means the stretch between them is unaccounted for.

A dot is a reading. Recorded enrollment counts match, so the line is flat across the whole window: it says when dibs looked rather than what changed. The last dot is the last time dibs read this section, moved or not, and that was 3 hours ago. It is the last thing dibs saw, not where the count is now.

How readings and alerts work

A reading and an hourly record are different things, and most charts here hold more of the second missing than present. dibs has taken readings of a section since long before it began keeping an hour-by-hour log of when it looked, so the empty stretches are dibs saying it was not keeping that log yet, not that it looked and found nothing. That is the age of the record and not a fault.

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.
