Seats, time, final and grades
Seats
Open, 25 seats left.
0 of 25 enrolled, lecture and all discussions summed.
Read 73 minutes ago. This is a recent reading, not a live seat count.
Meets
MW 3:30pm-4:45pm
Lecture only. You also attend a discussion, listed below.
Final
Exam time unavailable
No exam time is listed in the available section details. Check the registrar or current syllabus; this does not mean there is no final.
Grades
Sign in to save watches and schedule boards. You can browse courses, seat readings and grade history without an account.
Put this class on a board
A board is one quarter you are drafting, so it needs an account to live in. Signing in brings you straight back to this page, with this class still in front of you.
What watching takes
Your setup, with any current hold shown beside the watch control.
An account
An alert needs an email address. You can browse courses and grade history without signing in.
Your year
Helps dibs interpret enrollment limits. Uncertain eligibility may still be included with a caveat.
When you can enroll
Set your appointment or acknowledge that an open seat may not be available to you yet.
A watch slot
25 per account. A lecture watch also covers its discussions. Paused watches still use a slot.
Before you can enroll
Registrar's Restrictions cell, read 13 days ago: "Physiological Science or Neuroscience Majors".
Tell dibs what you have already taken and this line will say which of these you have. Your list.
From the registrar limited by major
Enrollment is limited to Physiological Science and Neuroscience majors on the priority, first, and second enrollment passes. Any student may enroll beginning November 18, 2026, space permitting.
The limit applies on every enrollment pass, so there is no earlier or later pass about it, and it lifts on 18 November. dibs still counts this class as one you can take, but not until then. This class is also Physiological Science or Neuroscience Majors, which that date does not lift.
Restrictions checked 13 days ago and may be outdated. Unwatched sections are rechecked less often than watched sections. Check the registrar before counting on a seat.
Discussions
You enroll in the discussion, not the lecture, so the seat figure above is the sum across all of them and can read open while every discussion you could actually join is full.

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.
No reviews were listed in the BruinWalk source checked 6 hours ago. Assignment details are unknown. Check the current syllabus.
Will it still be here
low risk chance of closing before your enrollment pass.
Seats over time
Same seat count, but the status went closed by the department to open and the cap started being published over 13 days
1 time reopenedAll 3 readings say 0 enrolled, and the cap started being published.
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: 73 minutes ago.

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.
Class chat
Nobody on dibs watches this class or has it on a plan yet. Nobody has posted yet.
Reading a room needs no account. Posting does, and it is free.
