Background
Our web app, 'Rate My Class,' is designed to be a resource for University of Texas (UT) students to find ratings for various courses from previous years. It provides a more straightforward alternative to searching through Rate My Professor or other sources. Additionally, this web app enables UT students to securely log in with their UT EID and leave reviews for classes they took.
