# Studiety > Student-written course reviews, past-paper and exam archives, peer tutors and a > timetable builder for university students in Lebanon. Studiety covers AUB (American University of Beirut) and NDU (Notre Dame University – Louaize) and LAU (Lebanese American University). Studiety answers the question students ask before they register: what is this course actually like? Reviews are written by students who took the course, except for 2,122 older ones carried over from the student Facebook group Studiety grew out of, which are labelled as such on the page and in each course's Markdown copy. Every past paper, syllabus and set of notes is shared by students who sat the class. Course codes, titles, credits and catalogue descriptions come from the universities' own registrar catalogues. Coverage as of 13 November 2026: 7,817 courses, 4,499 student reviews, 1,967 shared course files and 2,797 professors. Studiety is independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by any university. Reviews are the opinions of individual students. Every page listed below is also available as plain Markdown by adding `.md` to its address — for example `https://studiety.com/aub/course/544.md`.
