What people actually got

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.
This rests on 2 reported terms. It is shown because hiding it would not make it less true, but one or two results are a datapoint, not a distribution — a single unusual cohort moves this number a long way.

What this opens up
7 courses list PHY256H1 as a prerequisiteThe other 2 have no page yet. Listing a course here means it names PHY256H1 among its prerequisites — often as one of several ways to satisfy the same requirement, so this is what PHY256H1 makes available, not what it alone guarantees.
