    Quarter Taken: Spring 2022 In-Person
    Grade: N/A

    class is relatively easy; a bit of busy work with the group project but there are weekly milestones that take you step by step through it

    Quarter Taken: Spring 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A+

    This class was cool but a little bit tedious! There were a lot of small assignments due.

    Quarter Taken: Spring 2023 In-Person
    Grade: A

    class wasn't hard, just very hard to get through. required attendance for lectures and discussion. quarter long group project (not bad as there are deadline throughout the quarter to pace you). However there is minimal busy work that's kind of annoying, but really cool to learn about!
