My professor (head of CS dept) referred to these as 'weed out classes'.

If that sounds evil, imagine the grief, wasted money, time, frustration, and stress of letting people get 3-4 years into computer science and then dropping out because it's fucking hard.

So my second hardest classes were freshman year. 3rd year (micro-architecture and assembler)finally bested them.
