How this is ranked

Ranked by difficulty, lowest first: how hard students say the class is.

Scores run 0 to 100 and come from student ratings, aggregated across the web where we have them and from reviews written here otherwise. Courses with too few ratings aren't ranked. Each score is adjusted for how many ratings back it: a class with only a few is pulled toward the school average, so its score here can differ a little from its course page. Each row shows how many ratings back it. Showing every course, including graduate-level classes and ones most students can't enroll in.
