Professor was really kind and great in explaining the concepts. But the course itself is very boring and heavily focused on proofs and theory. Since, it's a required for cs. Would recommend doing all the hw properly and visiting lots of office hours and make sure you ace your first or second trial of every quiz. once you get wrong on every trial of the quiz, the quiz becomes more harder and harder to ace it. Other than that, it's quite manageable. Just make sure you don't underestimate this course.

Prof. Kimmel was great at teaching the concepts in this class. While the learning targets grading style is unique I really enjoyed it and felt it helped motivate me to truly learn the content. There wasn’t much coding, but the other topics seemed important and applicable.

Prof Kimmel uses a learning target style of grading. Instead of exams there are learning targets where you can pick and choose which targets to complete. Your grade is based off how much primary / secondary targets you have by the end ilofbtbe year. Great for retrying skills and earning full credit for them even after messing up on a previous assessment, but if missing 1 or 2 problems could change your grade a lot
