What people actually got
Last observed Fall 20251 term 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.
This rests on 1 reported term. 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.
Where the marks come from
Fall 2026 syllabusExtracted from a published Fall 2026 syllabus — verified against the university's own document. Components that could not be labelled are shown unresolved rather than folded into a neighbouring category.
