I am surprised to hear that an Honors class would have 120 students. Isn’t the point to have smaller class sizes? 120 is still a monster class



Not at Pitt. Your core classes (Calc, Physics, Chem, Bio, Psych 1) often go as high as 300 students. Being at 120 was a small class (and honestly it didn’t feel big to me). Dropping down to 49 in the spring felt very small.

FWIW my UHC Physics class was about 90 and my UHC Engineering class had to be capped around 85 (originally had >100 people signed up).
