computer science questions?

<p>I've decided to attend UCR in the fall and I had some questions about the computer science major. What kind of classes will I be taking my first year? How easy/hard are the classes? Will it be difficult to sign up for all of the classes I need? What do the classes consist of? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.</p>

<p>@TonyThaTiger: Take a look at this sample plan <a href=“http://student.engr.ucr.edu/CS%202009.pdf[/url]”>http://student.engr.ucr.edu/CS%202009.pdf&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>just a heads up, if you take this guy name Linard for a CS class(i.e. CS12, CS61), get ready for HELL.</p>

<p>I forgot what class these professors taught, they are hard and boring, did not make the learning process fun at all!</p>

<p>I’m a CE major, and it’s overall, it will be hard but can be fun and rewarding. You’ll be balancing math, along with my CS courses, and usually english and/or a breadth. first one is CS10 which is basic C++ programing. lots of hard work involved but if you get involved in the BCOE learning communities and make friends with the people you’re with, it is a lot of help. </p>

<p>and the link in one of the posts above does give you what you should take each quarter.
Linard is strict, Miller can also be tough.</p>

<p>ok thanks to all who answered. one more question though. how is the math placement exam scored and what score do I need to enroll in the proper math class for a computer science major?</p>

<p>I’ll be attending UCR in the fall and I’m going to be a CS Major as well :)</p>
