BACS: COS-2050 Python Programming VS COS-4510 AI,which course is easier? - Felisa - 11-19-2023

Does anyone know which course is easier? COS-2050 Python Programming or COS-4510 Artificial Intelligence?
I want to register for the December semester, take a flat-term(including 4 courses + 1 Capstone project), and then I can get my graduation certificate from BACS.

The AI course has been reported to be relatively easy. I think the Python course may not be more difficult, but I think it's more involved. I would probably choose the AI course.

@Felisa, did you check the requirements for both courses? If not, you should compare the assignments, exams, etc it may have and the points/scores required for each of them. Some people would want to take one that they're more interested in, the Python class can come from elsewhere for cheaper, my suggestion also is the AI, but it all depends on the student and what they want... What are the 4 classes you're looking at? It should be e-packs or easier classes, these classes can even duplicate your previous credits, it's just used for residency credits.

AI is just doing the reading, short written answers for homework assignments, plus exams. There's no programming at all. So if you'd rather be programming, do Python, if you just want to study theory, do AI.


COS-4510 Artificial Intelligence, how to prepare for the mid-term exam? So stressful - Felisa - 01-21-2024

Has anyone taken this course before, I would be very grateful if you could give me any advice.
I am preparing for the mid-term of COS-4510 AI course, I know it is open-book, but I don't know how to prepare for it!!!
I've asked the professor, but he didn't give me any advice!!!!

Q1 Are the midterm exam questions will be similar to the assignment questions?

Q2 Should I read through all the required chapters in the textbook or is there a more effective way to prepare? 

Thanks!!!!

I took it but it was years ago, so take it with a grain of salt. I'd concentrate on the end of chapter questions, and the class assignments. Use post-its to mark pages you think you might want to find quickly during the test.
