The MUS-PRV report is a special report. It combines all private music lesson courses for a given instructor into a single report without course or student identifiers. Combining all MUS-PRV courses into one report gets student feedback to instructors while protecting student privacy in classes where enrollments are typically below the minimum threshold.
...
The MUS-PRV report accurately counts the number of responders across all (and only) MUS-PRV courses; however, the report counts the number of invited students across all courses taught by a given instructor (even if the course is in another subject area such as MUS or MUS-ENS), which inflates the denominator used in the response ratio calculation. As a result, the response ratio on MUS-PRV reports is inaccurate from a MUS-PRV response ratio perspective.
The example illustrates how MUS-PRV reports are constructed and how the response ratio is calculated.If there are no MUS-PRV student responses saved or submitted, an empty MUS-PRV report will be generated.

In this Spring 2024 example, the instructor taught:
MUS-ENS 101/102
2 students enrolled/invited
0 students responded
MUS 369
11327
13 students enrolled/invited
8 students responded
MUS 501500
1 2 student enrolled/invited
0 response
MUS-PRV 110101
2 1 students enrolled/invited
1 student responded
MUS-PRV 310301
3 students enrolled/invited
0 students responded
MUS-PRV 510501
1 student enrolled/invited
1 response
So, on the MUS-PRV report, the invited number is 20 (total invited across all courses taught in Spring 2024). The responded number is only from the pool of people enrolled in a MUS-PRV course—of the 6 students in one or another MUS-PRV course, only 2 saved or submitted the evaluation. For the response ratio, Blue counts the number of people who saved or submitted a MUS-PRV evaluation and divides it by the number of students who were invited to complete evaluations for any Music department course taught by the instructor. The This results in a response ratio of 10.0%, which is inaccurate from a MUS-PRV response ratio perspective. (Figure 1)
