What people actually got
Last observed Fall 20226 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. 6 observations can support one honest number; they cannot support 6.

Both a midterm and a final appear in what we hold, so this course has historically been assessed on both rather than on a single end-of-term paper.
Counts, not a library. Pyko does not host or distribute course files, and this page is not an offer to supply one — the archive is what lets these pages describe how a course is assessed.
