About these statistics

GPA and percentages are weighted by recorded letter grades. UW comparisons use the same terms. Cross-listed courses count once within this department and once across UW; department totals should not be added together. Grade counts are not unique students. Offering counts reflect captured records, not a complete historical schedule.

Historical reviews of Adrien Couet: The course involves a non-trivial amount of work; students must be prepared to treat it as a four-credit course and put in effort outside of class to learn the material.
