<p>Most intense CS classes: CS 150, CS 152, CS 162, and any class with Prof. Hilfinger.</p>
<p>This is just what I’ve heard from other people, as I’ve yet to take an upper div yet.</p>
<p>Easiest: CS3 I guess? I’ve never taken it before but most people get an A or B in that class.</p>
<p>Hardest/Easiest out of the 61 series: I felt 61B was the easiest and 61C the hardest, but I think it really depends on the person. 61B is more abstract and closer to theoretical CS. 61C is more of a practical approach and you learn the basics behind how your computer works, down to the actual logic short of using actual physics to describe the circuits. I felt 61C was harder in that there’s simply much more information crammed into that course compared to 61B. The material isn’t wasn’t necessarily harder to understand but there’s just so much of it. The algorithms and data structures taught in 61B were very intuitive and relied on problem solving skills, as opposed to the information cramming done in 61C.</p>
