Her lectures mainly focused on helping students understand the concept rather than learn how to actually do the coding because the homework covers that. She's a sweet professor and wants to help her students. Tests are by hand but the labs might be a little challenging.

9 labs that took forever and never what she taught. 1 midterm and final that were alright altho final was way easier. Can be a bit confusing when lecturing. She seems like a nice person but i just had a hard time learning from her.

Very fair class. There is a good amount of homework and labs, but are really doable if you start early and go to office hours. Lectures are very helpful, she explains everything very clearly and thoroughly. Easy if you're willing to put in the work

Prof K is by far the best CS professor I've had. Teaches very clearly during lectures, uses I-clicker. Materials are structured to help students visualize codes (using graphs) to make it easier to understand the way the codes run step by step. Form a study group, make sure to do the assigned readings, and practice self-explaining concepts.

Professor Kharitonova's CMPSC9 class can be challenging, but manageable if you stay on top of the labs and use resources like the textbook and office hours. I found unstuck ai to be a helpful study tool alongside the class materials. Overall, it's a rewarding course if you're willing to put in the effort.
