4.0 out of 5 starsFall 2025Prof. EsmailiWould take again

Data structures is one of those classes that sucks while youre in it but you realize later how important it was. The homework assignments are long and the exams are tricky but the curve is generous. You NEED to understand linked lists and trees cold for the final. Esmaili is a solid lecturer.

Tip: Start the homework assignments early. Like Monday early. They will take longer than you think.

Every review is free to read. Took CSE 214? Adding one takes about two minutes.
