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 Summer 2023. Instructors, weighting and exam format may all have changed since — treat this as history, not a forecast.

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.

45% of the grade is decided in the final alone. Steady coursework cannot carry this course on its own.

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

A current averageThe newest verified observation is from Summer 2023. Later terms have no confirmed result yet.
Per-term breakdownHeld back deliberately. Splitting 1 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.

What this opens up

49 courses list STA260H5 as a prerequisite

Showing 24 of the 27 that have a page here. The other 22 have no page yet. Listing a course here means it names STA260H5 among its prerequisites — often as one of several ways to satisfy the same requirement, so this is what STA260H5 makes available, not what it alone guarantees.
