Professor Majedi is very caring, but her lectures are not on par with the homework and labs. To really succeed in this class you should learn C++ beforehand. Midterm is fine if you practice a lot, and strive to fully understand what is going on inside the memory as code runs. She gives out plenty of practice material for midterms which are helpful.

She tells us false information multiple times in a class that our TAs have sent multiple emails to correct her mistakes, and she multiplied number of frqs compared to other professors who taught this class. Later can be fine, but when u cannot trust what your professor tells you, it is problematic.

Genuinely such a sweet lady. She clearly puts a lot of effort into the material she teaches. She gives lots of practice exams which are incredibly helpful. SUPER sweet. She seems intimidating but she's very nice. I would highly encourage people to take advantage of her office hours.
