CS 1110

The class was relatively easy, even without any background and felt that I could apply the concepts well. Towards the end, the Object-Oriented Programming topics necessary for the final project could be a little clearer, but that is my only gripe with the class. Otherwise, she is a great instructor that really cares about her students, encouraging them to ask questions and the mandatory labs do reinforce the topics learnt in class.

In terms of getting an A, the quizzes are open-IDE/open-note and the labs are basically completion, giving you a large buffer. The exams are a little nit-picky with syntax but as long as you pay attention, you should be fine. Doing well on the first two exams allows you to exempt yourself from the third, and it is very possible to do well. Overall, great professor who cares a lot and would recommend her to anyone.

Overall very interesting course, TA were helpful, and Professor K was really passionate about the subject matter.
