UIUCProfCritic is a free Chrome extension designed to enhance the class registration experience for students at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). This tool integrates essential information about professors, such as ratings, difficulty levels, and the likelihood of taking the course again, directly into the registration interface. By pulling data from RateMyProfessors.com, it allows students to access critical insights at a glance, ensuring they can make informed decisions when selecting their courses.

To use UIUCProfCritic, students simply need to navigate to the registration page and ensure the Schedule type column is properly displayed. Once activated, the extension scrapes the visible professors from the registration page, matches them with their ratings, and presents the information in an organized manner. This functionality not only saves time during the registration process but also empowers students to choose classes that align with their academic preferences.
