  2. PolyNotes AI lists the usual programme for that major. It works from what it knows, and doesn't browse the web.
  3. Review your program: untick courses that don't apply, and fix credits, prerequisites, semesters a year, total credits and the per-semester limit.
  4. Confirm. Nothing is saved until you do.

It uses one AI action, counted only once the result arrives. Check it against your university's official programme.
