If you can take this class with Prof Sehat, then do it. You will not find a better professor for this course. Prof Sehat is very efficient with his lectures so you will learn a lot of topics. And he explains the material quite clearly. However, most of them should be familiar as you should have learned them in CS33. There are no midterms and final, but there were 4 quizzes (could change depending on your classes speed). The quizzes are fair and expect to use the entire allocated time to finish it. The homework isn't that bad, just make sure you understand the material. For me at least, the 2 projects weren't that bad. If you understand the material, you should be able to do everything in a day or day and day half.

The best computer science class I have ever taken at UCLA without doubt.

Professor Sehatbakhsh is an excellent professor and is always committed to helping students. He also gives TONS of extra credit opportunities. My only beef is that coding assignments test more how well you can use Claude rather than how well you can actually code. But overall, this was one of my favorite classes at UCLA.

lectures r lowkey hard to follow bc I felt like there was a lot going on but the rest of the class was pretty easy so I thought it was okay. we didn't get a lot of practice for the quizzes (3 quizzes, non-cumulative) except for the homework (graded on completion) and the provided previous quarter's quizzes which may or may not have been outdated. nader's goated though he responded to my email about a final grade mistake on christmas eve in like 20 minutes 🙏
