@QwertyKey,

You’re fine, then. About the same level I am. Just don’t decide to pledge a frat your first semester of Sophomore year and you should be able to manage above a 3.3 while in 280 and 203. Also, 280 exams are nothing like 101. It’s strictly writing code and testing your knowledge of the C++ language, it does not trick you like 101 exams. BUT, you don’t get your notes or your book like you do on the 101 exams.

203 is a whole different story. I really struggled in the class because for some reason I suck at proofs. But for the most part it seems like everyone struggles in the class. I would consider 280 and 203 and maybe 281 to be weeder courses for the CSE major.
