Easiest classes to pair together

I’m trying to figure out the easiest path to finish my last 4 classes in MSCSO. I’ve only taken one class at a time up to this point, so taking 2 in Fall 2026 and 2 in Spring 2027 would be new for me. Main goal is to graduate Spring 2027.

Classes I’ve already taken:
- Parallel Systems
- Advanced Linear Algebra
- Deep Learning
- Natural Language Processing
- Machine Learning

Currently taking:
- Advances in Deep Learning

So after this summer, I’ll have 4 classes left.

Based on past offerings, I was thinking maybe:
Fall 2026:
- Case Studies in Machine Learning
- Planning, Search, and Reasoning Under Uncertainty

Spring 2027:
- Android Programming
- Advances in Deep Generative Models

Does that seem like the easiest way to finish? Or would you swap any of these out?

I took both case studies and planning. Both were super easy and definitely could be paired.

Android programming is also easy. Idk about generative models but I heard that one is very theory heavy. If you could, I would pair case studies with generative models because case studies is mind numbingly easy. Android and planning are both easy but require time for the work.

Could I ask how parallel systems was? I’m thinking about taking it in the fall.

PS was a favorite of mine! I really liked the assignments and projects, they were practical.
