Autumn ‘20

Course Difficulty

Content wasn’t easy. It was meant to be for Masters students, hence some knowledge gap was noticeable in the lectures. Covering this gap required a bit of extra effort.
In some sections, it was difficult to understand what was the motivation behind the concept.

Time Commitment Required

Although no midsem and endsem, the quizes(6) took some time to prepare (4-5 hours each quiz). The assignments were time consuming (10 hours each) and preparing for the vivas also took quite some time.

No attendance required, atleast in an online setting.
