# Intro

I am a CS, DS & Math (Option for Computing and Programming) student at UW-Madison. Here are all the classes I took and I would like to write some reviews for it. I hope this will help you in some way. 

Please note I am writing this review as objectively as I can, but I am sure people will feel different than I do and the classes will change depending on who's teaching it. 

For each class, I am going to write about what requirements the class satisfies, its workload (how many hrs I spent outside of class), my comments, difficulty, and how much I recommend this class and its instructor. 

Classes I took:
