Strong student feedback in Sociology: 3.6 rating across 5 reviews.

  • Rating: 3.6 from 5 reviews.
  • Overall rank: #640 of 1263.

Not a clear yes or no, depends on what you are taking and what you like. Ranking wise, it is not near the top right now. Within the department, it is currently ranked lower. Not much data yet, so this could change quickly.

Probably best to check the specific course and term before committing.
