Has anyone here taken CS61 at Laney College with P. McDermott?

Here are the course web sites for the Berkeley course:

Do you need two semesters of chemistry for other colleges? At Berkeley, neither L&S CS nor EECS requires any chemistry, although one semester of chemistry can be used to fulfill the third science course (after two physics courses) for EECS.
