Everyone learns differently.

Lectures were all over the place for me - some useful, some awful. Professors really vary a lot in skill here. Same with tests - some helped me learn, some were rote memorization.

Labs were incredibly, incredibly useful. 4 years of practice doing coding problems made me a way better programmer.

I feel I got value out of the degree, even if there were some silly games to play.
