<h1>About</h1>
<p>
Note: At the time I developed this site, tools like UT Registration
Plus and Catalyst showed very outdated grade data, if any at all.
</p>
<p>I'm sure you've all seen this before:</p>

It's the grade distribution page from UT Registration Plus, a popular
registration extension, and shows for more than half the courses
available.

During Spring 2023 registration, I noticed popular sites like Catalyst
and UT Registration Plus showed outdated on grade distributions, or no
data at all. As a result, instead of paying attention to the
pipelining lecture in 429 that day, I decided to start working on this
website. Magically, my quiz grade average decreased dramatically that
week.

On April 17th, 2023, the project was born! Though it was finished
midway through registration, the following registration periods saw a
lot of use from students all over campus.
