SBR600:Reflections On SBR600

Wow it been 4 months already.... seems like yesterday i was walking to my first class...

Its been a fun and challenging semester, but onto SBR600...

This course, can make you feel like your the king of the world (when you figure something new that no one has done before) or really crappy after you spend a few hours on a task with no success. But there is light at the end of the tunnel and that light is all the people out there on IRC who help you.

One suggestion i do have, is that we start the projects earlier giving us more time to work on them OR more frequent checks are done. Twice a change had to be made which caused us to redo a portion of the project. If we had more warning or a guideline of what methods to do/not to do, we may of not had that problem, but obstacles will always come up in life...

Overall though i really enjoyed this class, my only regret is that i didn't take this course earlier.
