#2For me ,choosing which class to take has become the hard decision.So many classes in Jan/Feb. I wish they move some classes to March.
Re: Stanford Free Class: Computer Security
#3Coincidentally, this class is taught by a Berkeley professor along with the Stanford ones, so it's more of a Stanford-Berkeley free class.

Information Theory class is starting in March.
Moreover, Design and Analysis of Algorithms II would also be offered in March.

Are they offering 261 in this form? I hadn't heard that yet, and I don't see it on the list at the bottom

I believe they're ten weeks long.
Whether they will be easy to follow or not will probably depend on how much free time you have now. I work fifty hours a week and socialise often and have found it difficult to keep up with all three courses currently running. I imagine for someone in my position two would be the sweet spot.

No, not 261. Tim Roughgarden is breaking CS161, Design and Analysis of Algorithms what is usually a one-quarter into two five-week pieces offered initially in the winter and spring quarters, respectively.
This also explains the 'I' after the course title in the current online offering.

I started taking the Machine Learning class while going to school full time and I had to drop out. It was just too much. I also work full time and have a toddler, however. If I was single I think I could handle it.
