Every section, ranked, in the app

ClassMaxx ranks this semester's live Indiana University-Bloomington sections easiest first, by instructor, and alerts you when a seat opens in the one you want.

Grade distributions are public records published by Indiana University-Bloomington. Shares are of letter grades given (withdrawals excluded). A high A/B share doesn't mean a class is easy for you; it means most students who finished it did well.

The iPhone app pushes the alert the second a seat opens, builds four ready schedules from your degree audit, and ranks sections by real grades. Free; a $4.99 Fast pass per semester makes alerts instant.
