What people actually got
Last observed Fall 20223 terms observed
This is a student-contributed aggregate, not an official University of Toronto record. It is also not a measure of how hard the course is — a course average moves with who enrols in it, not only with the material.
The newest observation is from Fall 2022. Instructors, weighting and exam format may all have changed since — treat this as history, not a forecast.
Per-term figures stay hidden until each term clears five contributors. 3 observations can support one honest number; they cannot support 3.
Where the marks come from

What this opens up
29 courses list BIO206H5 as a prerequisiteThe other 18 have no page yet. Listing a course here means it names BIO206H5 among its prerequisites — often as one of several ways to satisfy the same requirement, so this is what BIO206H5 makes available, not what it alone guarantees.
