Testudo++
Extension Actions
- Live on Store
A streamlined process for reviewing course and professor evaluations integrated as a browser extension on https://testudo.umd.edu/.
This chrome extension helps UMD students better navigate the 'Schedule of Classes' on https://app.testudo.umd.edu/soc/. It allows users to make easier, faster, and better decisions based on data provided by PlanetTerp. Rather than navigating between tabs to properly vet prospective instructors based on their ratings and student reviews, you can conduct all of that natively within the webpage. With a sleek interface, matching design, and smooth transitions, Testudo++ feels like it's supposed to belong there. It's able to provide the additional information students value to determine whether they want to register for a specific course or professor.

- Great extension! Helped reduce how long it takes to find and compare classes, being able to see the comments from the reviews integrated directly into Testudo is super helpful. Thanks for making this!

- Could not recommend enough! I'm really picky about my sections / professors and usually have a ton of tabs open come registration. Everything is clean and the sort features are super helpful. My laptop is probably grateful I'm no longer running a thousand tabs at once.

- Super helpful to help pick classes! I don't have to go back and forth between tabs anymore. The avg grade feature is awesome! Thank you!
