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.

Per-term figures stay hidden until each term clears five contributors. 4 observations can support one honest number; they cannot support 4.

How well we know this course

2015–2023

Pyko’s archive holds 7 documents for PSY100Y5, across 5 years between 2015 and 2023.

4: Final exams
1: Assignments
2: Lab handouts

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.

What we don’t have yet

Per-term breakdownHeld back deliberately. Splitting 4 observations across terms would be false precision.

Instructor-level detailAverages are not split by instructor. At these sample sizes the difference between sections is noise, not signal.
