Join the waitlist on the registrar (opens in a new tab) Sign in to watch for an opening

Watching is the one thing here that needs an account, because an alert needs somewhere to go. Everything else on this page works signed out.

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.

Before you can enroll

From the registrar limited early, then open

Seats are held for entering students who enroll through New Student Orientation sessions beginning July 2, 2026. New student restrictions will be lifted on September 15, 2026 at 8 a.m. Enrollment is limited to departmental, Asian Languages and Linguistics, Spanish and Linguistics, and Cognitive Science majors on the priority and first enrollment passes. Any student may enroll on the second pass, space permitting. PTE numbers are distributed at the instructor's discretion.

The limit applies to the earlier enrollment pass. dibs still counts this class as one you can take, because it opens up, but on first pass it may not be yours yet.

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.

8 discussions, none open. The way in is the lecture's waitlist, at 8 of 40.

No discussion is open. 8 discussions have a waitlist with room. A place on one is not a seat: it is a queue the department may or may not clear.

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.

Workload, very light. 4.5 of 5 for Anoop Mahajan, where 5 is lightest. Read 25 hours ago.

dibs has read this course’s reviews and none of them say what kind of work it sets, so dibs has nothing to show rather than a guess. Read from 118 reviews about 1 month ago. That is the reviewers being silent, and not a course that sets no work.

Will it still be here

dibs read 168 of the 539 hours its hourly record covers, 31%, and did not look in 371. dibs had no hourly record before 10 Sep, which is the other 571 of 1110 plotted.240 of 240 enrolled at the newest reading, 2 hours ago, and no seats left in its discussions. Seats from 17 Aug 12:32 to 2 Oct 17:22, 160 to 240. dibs read 168 of the 539 hours its hourly record here covers, 31%. An hour marked as read confirms a check, not continuous monitoring. That check recorded no change; changes between checks may be missed. For 371 hours dibs was keeping a record and did not reach this section. Nothing before 10 September at 07:00, where this section's record starts, has a read either way, which is 571 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 where something moved: the seat count, the status, or the waitlist. Flat between dots joins recorded counts; changes between reads may be missed. The line starts when dibs first saw this section rather than reaching back before it existed. The last one is the last time dibs read this section, moved or not, and that was 2 hours ago. It is where the line stops, 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.
