Reviews of professor Jacob Whitehill

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Lecture heavy, but you covers the material needed for the homework in depth. I only wished he gave more study material for the tests. They weren't too different than the homework, but one question on the final caught me off-guard.

Really Really good lectures and the projects are fun and interesting and always have a satisfying end result. Highly highly recommend

Whitehill is an amazing professor. I'm in his accelerated course -- he moves quickly and assumes a lot of prior knowledge. He keeps you on your toes, and there's never a boring moment in his class. The homework is very challenging, but also interesting and fun. He has a great sense of humor, he often has the whole class laughing! Also, NO TEXTBOOK!

I learned absolutely nothing, just a waste of time.

Lectures and homework assignments are unrelated. Many confusing things.

Amazing Professor! Knows his stuff and teaches in such a great way. Whitehill really cares about his students and will remember your name. This class was difficult and project heavy, with one midterm and one final. Although it was tough, it was so worth it. He explains material really well and clearly has a solid grasp on what he is teaching.

There's around one project a week that you can work on with one partner, one midterm, and one final. It's a tough course, but Whitehill is a great professor who organizes his TAs well. They provide an up-to-date schedule of who will be available when and where, and can always meet outside those office hours. Also I think Whitehill is an immortal

Whitehill is such a great teacher! I learned so much, not just about data structures in CS, but also about good programming tips in general. It's a challenging course, but when you make it out on the other end, you'll be glad you took it.
