Comments on the course

Easily the best and most caring prof I’ve ever had at UBC - TAs are super responsive and helpful, and Dr. Wolfman would bring brownies to the midterm review sessions.

Advice

Keep up with the assignments (there’s a lot, but if you do them you won’t even have to study for the exams). Don’t bother taking notes in class, just listen and try to work through the problems on your own before asking for help. The final project is super easy to do well on if you just follow the template. If you want to do really well on the exams, try to work through all the practice exams they give you (there was like 7 of them when I took the course) and you will do great!

Comments on the course

Not a bad course but a bit too in depth for me. Profs were amazing with Steve and Norm. The quizzes aren't too hard and the labs are straight forward and fair. The exams were extremely tough and had pretty low averages (between 50 to 60). Try not to fall behind otherwise you would be struggling quite a bit.

Advice

Try to take it after CPSC 213 since the first unit is on the Y86 and the content from 213 really helped understand that unit. Everything else is pretty new but try and brush up on some C before the course

Comments on the course

This is a required cpsc course but very useful into getting into data structures and algorithms. It was very quiz heavy but they are not hard at all and give a lot of practice questions. As long as you start on the assignments early, you should be fine and get a decent grade. Average for our section was around 86.

Comments on the professor

Cinda was amazing and super entertaining in class. Try and take her when you can.

Advice

Try and learn a bit of C++ before going into the class but the first few labs help you get into it and they have a C/C++ refresher videos that should help.
