Choosing electives is difficult, and more often than not can backfire - just because a friend found that class easy, doesn't mean you will too.
It's a common story: Your friend who's really good at exam writing takes a course with 100% of the grades based on exams. They then recommend it to you as a GPA booster, but you'd much rather taken a course with less weighting on exams and more on homework: And you don't enjoy yourself when you take that course.
Made for UBC students, Coursepenguin aims to correct that by grabbing available grade data for all of your courses and allowing users to vote on the difficulty of a course. Best of all, Coursepenguin shows you this information directly when you're looking for classes to register for. Make informed decisions about whether or not a class is for you.
Currently supports courses.ubc.ca and Canvas (Must be on a course homepage)!
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
