How we got this

Class details come from UT’s Physical Education catalog page, checked October 27, 2026.

Grades come from UT’s grade dashboard, updated October 27, 2026. UT leaves out some small classes to protect students’ privacy. Past grades describe earlier terms; your section, instructor, and effort shape yours.

We count each A–F grade once. A’s counts A grades, and A− has its own bar. Subject averages use every letter grade in that subject and level that term, including this class. How the averages are calculated.
