CSCI0201 with Amy Briggs3 days ago

Professor Briggs moved fast through material but did a good job of explaining new concepts. You need to keep on top of the homework to not get behind and attending class is important if you want to succeed but if you do those things you’ll have a great experience.

CSCI0145 with Laura Biester3 days ago

Was going to be my interesting/fun 4th class. Ended up taking up more time than my other 3 classes combined. Very fast paced and difficult homework and exams. Biester is nice and helpful however it is very easy to fall behind and then you're kinda screwed and playing a constant game of catch up.

CSCI0416 with Michael Linderman4 days ago

This was class was hard. Linderman jumps right and speeds through content even when it is extremely obvious that 99% class doesn't understand. It felt like there was supposed a class in between this and comp architecture. The only way got through the homeworks was in office hours in which he basically did the work for you. Otherwise the exams were difficult. Each one had 5 topics it dealt with and each topic could 1 or more question. Since you were graded on understanding of topics, you only got credit if you got every question in the topic correct. This lead to many low scores like 2/5 of first exam. Would not take this class again.
