    Extremely well organized class and very reasonable workload

    I think this class is a relatively helpful one across all CS classes offered by the department. Cho is also a very engaging teacher. However, you should be aware that the exams are extremely difficult especially the final one because it is very very tricky and toward the low-level end.

    Cho was awesome. The lectures are clear & the projects are very doable (he gives you all the resources you need). The exams are a little hard but still fair. I very much enjoyed his lectures.
