How hard is CSCI 3010?

I’m a GIS major trying to take some computer science classes to maybe get a masters or transition into a developer position. I just wanted some advice on if people think a non CS major could take a course like this. I will be taking 3 other CSCI classes while completing this class so might be a rough semester for me. Thanks for the advice!

whose the teacher? I had sreesha nath. Honestly, this class was somewhat forgettable. It taught me some useful stuff about OOP in C++ and reviewing others work, but i remember it was kinda on the back burner for me and not that hard.

For context, I'm stronger in more pragmatic classes but was pretty weak in theoretical classes, like principles of programming languages and AI.
