That is the class itself, averaged across everyone who taught it. Who taught it, and how each of them scored, is the board below — that is what a student picking a section is actually choosing between.

What the challenge rank is made of

100thMore challenging than 100% of BC classesranked against every one we hold

100BC — “Intellectually Challenging”1 record · raw score out of 100

Boston College's own “intellectually challenging” question for this class only — students answer it positively about courses that stretched them, so it measures intellectual challenge and NOT grading, workload or quality. Almost every BC class scores high on it, which is why it is shown as a rank rather than a score.

What the workload rank is made of

100thMore work than 100% of BC classesranked against every one we hold

100BC — “Workload”1 record · raw score out of 100

Boston College reports workload for this class only as one of five bands, not as a number of hours, and it does not publish what the bands mean — so this site will not translate it into hours. Higher means more work, which is not the same as worse.

The Advanced Civil Rights Class is a pop-up clinic that allows students who have completed the Civil Rights Clinic the opportunity, with permission of the Clinic Director, to stay engaged in one of the Clinic's long-term matters and experience new lawyering responsibilities. The representative matters include litigation and policy advocacy projects involving the civil rights of low-wage workers, immigrants, prisoners and communities of color in Massachusetts. Advanced Civil Rights students will work on a team alongside students in the Civil Rights Clinic and be supervised by the Clinic Director. This class does not count toward experiential credits.

Bar length is the rank against every comparable record we hold, not the raw score: BC's questions all have a median around 4.5, so a raw-scale bar would be nearly full on every row and would tell you nothing. Every bar is one ink colour — nothing here is graded green or red. The hatched bars are not ratings at all: a higher number on either describes a different course, not a better one. 4 of 13 questions were not reported and are left out rather than shown as zero.

How to read this boardInstructors are ranked on their record in this class only, never on their average across everything they teach. Scores are out of 100 — Boston College's 1–5 agreement scale, ×20, the way these numbers were printed for years. Workload is BC's own five-band figure, not a number of hours, and is shown as a rank. A dash means the question was not reported, and is never a zero.
