How we ranked193 classes

We averaged every A to F grade given in each class from fall 2023 to summer 2026, using UT’s grade points (A is 4.0, A- is 3.67). Only classes with at least 1,000 letter grades count. Ties go to the class with more students. A high average grade doesn’t mean less work.

Our pick: We pick the class with the most grades among those within 0.05 of No. 1’s average, so its number rests on the most students.
