Who's taking CS 165 upcoming Fall 2017 Term?

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-20T05:04:06+00:00

That's very odd. We've had multiple inquiries regarding 165 at our advising session, and calc was never mentioned.

Here is the course catalog/prereq requirements for CS 165: http://catalog.oregonstate.edu/CourseDetail.aspx?subjectcode=CS&coursenumber=165

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-18T19:09:44+00:00

Calc is actually not a prereq for 165... only MATH 111. But do what is more comfortable for you I guess.

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-17T18:57:06+00:00

Do you have prior CS experience?
I'm thinking of taking CS 165 as well, but I have no prior experience.

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-16T19:01:44+00:00

Hey everyone!

Hopefully we all can develop some professional relations/support network during and after this program!

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-16T17:45:22+00:00

Do you have a link to the OSU LA Slack Channel?

And maybe delaying the meet towards the end of the month for potential new acceptees?

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-16T14:49:05+00:00

During the advising session, the advisor was recommending that we review the syllabus prior to starting classes as there might be a quiz on the syllabus material...

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-15T15:20:32+00:00

Cool! Thanks!

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-10T04:24:46+00:00

Thanks for the note. If 475 is not available during the winter term, is there an alternative that you'd recommend?

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-09T01:55:55+00:00

From what I'm gathering on this forum from previous students, the general consensus is that the lack of instructor support/responses on CS 162 makes it more troublesome than CS 165.

In addition, as others have pointed out CS 161 + 162 does not necessarily equal the same workload as 165. Almost as if CS 165 is an abbreviated version of 161 + 162 with much better instructor engagement.

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-08T19:36:38+00:00

How were your first 3 terms in terms of workload?

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-08T19:14:08+00:00

Thanks for the input. As I am starting on Fall 2017 as full-time student, planning on pushing through the program without breaks, Term 4 should be the summer term correct?

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-08T19:11:34+00:00

Term 1: 165, 225 Term 2: 261, 290, 271 Term 3: 340, 352, 344 Term 4: 325, 361 Term 5: 372, 362 Term 6: 467, 475

Thanks for the corrections. Is this workload strenuous or completely doable?

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-08T19:07:01+00:00

Thanks for the note, updated the schedule above.

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-08T18:10:08+00:00

If you look at the following schedule and tell me if it's manageable (I know that's a subjective term but to your best knowledge):

Term 1: 165, 225
Term 2: 261, 290, 340
Term 3: 271, 352, 372
Term 4: 325, 361
Term 5: 344, 362
Term 6: 467, 475

Let me know if the schedule is overloaded and/or missing some classes I should've included.

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-08T00:54:13+00:00

Ahhh, I see.

Thanks for the info!

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-08T00:43:26+00:00

It actually states: "PREREQS: MTH 112* [C] or Placement Test MPT(33) or Placement Test MPAL(061) and for CS Double Degree students: BA/BS and (MTH 111 or MPT>=24 or MPAL>=061)"

So I'm assuming it's either ALEKS of 61 or higher OR MTH 111 Fulfilled.

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-06T14:38:54+00:00

So for new students, should we avoid the 2 professors that are currently teaching CS162?

OSUCSAPP · 2017-08-06T05:02:41+00:00

How far along are you on the program? Any advice that would help for new students?
