Ordered chillest first. A Chill Rank compares a professor with other CUNY professors on Rate My Professors difficulty, rating and would-take-again; it needs at least 3 ratings. How it works
Seat status as of Oct 4, 5:49 PM ET. Seats can change between refreshes. How fresh is this?
2 of 2 lecture options · 4 lab times folded inside · 5 of 6 sections open
Chill Rank compares professors using Rate My Professors reviews, from Chill to Brutal. What each rank means
You need one lecture and one lab. They can be combined freely, so pick each separately; the schedule builder checks the times together.
