UCLA Engineering Q&A

<p>wowx:</p>

<p>It's the same infrastructure with a lower rated professor; the difficulty is generally about the same, or else everyone would hold out and take it in the winter ... you still have to do the time consuming projects. In fact, the CS department in collaboration comes up with the projects, not just the professor himself.</p>

<p>oh, I thought it would be easier since the most of the CS majors would take it in the fall, so the curve would be easier since there's less smart people taking it in winter. Or at least that's that Deuces seems to be saying.</p>

<p>I've noticed that Winter quarter offerings of engineering courses tend to be more laid back, and thus less competitive. The same applies for Spring quarter offerings as well. That's just me, though. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>can someone rank the top 5 hardest upper division cs courses??</p>

<p>man... that cs33 final hurt my brain</p>

<p>its going to take me another three years to graduate in engineering after i transfer :(</p>

</p>

<p>yup................</p>

<p>Good, it wasn't just me.</p>

<p>is there a lab class that goes along with chem20A? cause like two 50 minute classes a week doesnt seem right. also, i was wondering if a fall schedule for cse major that includes: cs31, math31b/math32a, and chem20a is good? or if theres something else besides chem that people typically choose</p>

<p>Rohr is the only one teaching CS33 in the Fall. What should I do now? :(</p>

<p>A typical schedule for first quarter.</p>

That's his "specialty".</p>

<p>Has anyone taken CS M151B aka EE M116C? The prerequisite is CS33 and I'm thinking about just learning CS33 on my own over the summer because the registration system might still let me sign up for CS M151B. I'm EE major by the way and my only CS experience is C/C++ programming, data structures, and CS M51A.</p>

<p>How do you guys like Rennels for CS M151B?</p>

<p>sounds like a fun summer....</p>

No, there is no lab course for Chem 20A. Your schedule is very normal. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>


You don't actually need CS 33 for CS M151B. Assembly language is only 1/3 of the material in CS M151B, and you don't have to submit extensive code for projects. The MIPS you write is just for one-shot homework assignments. I never had Prof. Rennels. :rolleyes:</p>

<p>Does ANYONE other than Monbouquette teaching ChE 100?</p>

<p>I personally don't like him.</p>

<p>No, only Monboquette teaches it as far as I know. You will want to get the "supplementary" study air for Elementary Principles and Processes, it helps a lot.</p>

<p>another quick question here,</p>

<p>do most engineering classes have weekly hw assignments or does it tend to just be major projects? and more specifically do chem20a/cs31/math31b(or 32a) have weekly/daily homework or just projects?</p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Each vary. For Math and Chem, there most likely will be weekly homework (or no homework counted for grade, but quizzes make up that grade %).</p>

<p>As for CS 31, there are 7 programming projects and the midterm and final exams as usual.</p>
