I take it "60 hours weeks" comprised of a 40 hour per week job + course work; was that on 2 courses per semester then? And did you maintain 2 courses per semester throughout the program?

Are you willing to share a little about what made the difficult courses difficult? Heavy math component? Hard algorithms? Time consuming programming? I'm considering this program (and UT's), any additional information would be much appreciated.

Congrats on completing your last semester btw; no doubt a significant commitment and accomplishment.

Hey - There are some courses that need heavy math. Machine Learning, Artificial Intelligence, Computer Vision, Computer Photography and Algorithms. You can read more on the link I gave you.

Most of the classes are project based (vs. exam based). This means that there is a lower bound on how long you spend, no matter how well you understand the material.

The projects themselves are fairly intense and, if you take 2 courses, their deadlines will likely overlap.
