Fall 2019 - If you're taking this class because you never took calc/want a refresher, you probably don't need to. There is little to no math involved in this class, which makes it pretty easy. Jane is a very slow lecturer, and it was difficult for me to pay attention during class, but the class is BruinCasted, which is a huge plus. Overall, I think this class was a waste of time, and I wish I would've just started with 30A. However, I enjoyed the coding we learned in lab (except it was a little hard at first), but the TAs are very nice and helpful.

Fall 2020 - If you take 30A and 30B-do it with Dr. Jane! She is a really helpful professor. During covid, she made herself available for extra help and office hours more than any other professor. She genuinely wants you to learn and understand the material. She gave us a PDF of the textbook -which she wrote herself- and it's a useful addition to her lectures. The homework felt like busywork sometimes, but come exam time, I was happy to have had all the extra practice. I disliked the pre-class videos each week because they were so long, but otherwise her lectures were worthwhile. She also picks stellar TA's who are very knowledgeable about writing code.
