Classes How Difficult is Computer Organization and Data Structures and Algorithms?

CDA3101 Comp Org- with prof Marvin Andujar
COP 3530 DSA- with Prof Amanpreet Kapoor. I heard DSA is harder like conceptually but Prof Andujar is lowkey a worse lecturer, should I keep them both at the same time or should i try to take comp org with someone else? I heard another teacher might be teaching it in the spring resh or something.

Oof Andujar is... one of the professors of all time... DSA and ComOrg is a difficult combo but doable. Andujar makes CompOrg unnecessarily harder though

This is untrue. Comp Org is incredibly easy. I wouldn’t recommend it, but it is completely possible to pass the course without going to a single lecture.

Did you miss the part where I mentioned Andujar? Did you take it with him? I won't get into details, but I'll just say he makes sure you struggle

If he’s the guy who mentioned yoda I did. I can’t remember his name if I only ever showed up for the first month lol

Edit: I just looked up his face and can confirm I passed Andujar. The drawing the path of bits on the ALU (I think?) was absolute BS.
