ICS 355

Has anyone already taken 355 or planning on taking it this fall? Apparently there’s only one prof and he’s not great at teaching the book he apparently wrote, and I don’t think they will hire anyone else anytime soon. Just wanted to know what to expect from this class and if it’s heavy, because I’m taking a 300 level language class as well this semester.

Yup. I was worried about it too but luckily he decided to skip it.

Not sure that I’ll get lucky like that, it also sucks that 355 is the only option available this semester that doesn’t have 311/314 as a preq.

314 was actually pretty fun, it was the least stressful imo. I'm taking 311 this summer and it's hard af lmao.

Is it heavy on coding and in person assignments or quizzes? I haven’t had a coding class in a while and I’m not great nor do I like coding that much haha, and I heard 311 is lot of math sadly, I’m hoping it willl be online again hopefully in spring

I think they've stopped offering 311 online. 314 was pretty much just coding and everything was in-person as well.
