Rate my course

Inspiration

Typically, when a student drops a class it is because the class is not what he or she expected. Rate My Course aims to reduce the number of classes dropped per semester through a new student feedback system. With feedback on both the professor and the course, students will be better advised which courses to take and with which professor.

What it does

Give a more specific description about a course, such as engagement and difficulty. What's more, we also provide the feedback from the students who have took these course before.
