Dave Levin CMSC396H Expecting an A+ Anonymous 05/27/2025	Very easy and chill class. A few discussion posts at the start of the semester with a final mini research project. He doesn't take it too seriously, just talks about different aspects of research with the occasional guest speaker. No grades posted on canvas but an A+ in the grade book.
Dave Levin CMSC396H Expecting an A+ Anonymous 05/23/2025	Not much to say here since this class is very chill: the only work are a few discussion posts at the beginning of the semester than a research project that you must present and write-up a formal paper for. Dave is pretty cool as a guy, but I can't speak to his teaching since he wasn't doing much of it this semester.
Dave Levin CMSC396H Expecting an A homework420 12/20/2024	This class is super fun, Dave is like the best at talking about stuff it actually made the class so fun, that being said I always got the vibe that he didnt care a lot about the class itself, the canvas wasn't open until like 3 weeks into the semester, and the final project felt kind of disorganized and we didn't get too much guidance (that being said I think most people didn't seek out guidance and he did offer guidance if needed). Gradewise the class is super easy, it was mostly graded for completion. I would recommend taking it since it also counts towards your CS electives
