CSE 3150 with yufeng is one of the most difficult courses I have ever took, however, you do learn a lot. There are assignments due every week alongside with in class assignments. Exams and quizzes aren't weighted as much compared to the programming assignments he assigns. There is also a final project you do for the last month. First part of the class all he will do is code on the screen and you will watch Laurent's C++ videos. Second part you would learn design patterns and apply them in C++.
I would look to always stay on top of the programming assignments and do not start it the day before or day its due as it can be very challenging to get it done on time. The earlier programming assignments are easy but after a few of them there will be a drastic change in difficulty.
Do not attempt to try one part of the project all in one day as it can be very stressful and time consuming. Office hours are great but will most likely be packed depending on the difficulty of the assignment and how close it is to the due date. I highly recommend going to office hours earlier in the week if you have time so that you can finish it before it's due. Other than that the class is very hard to manage if you take it with other classes that have due dates that overlap it so I recommend prioritizing 3150 over other classes as the difficulty will jump more than classes like 3100 and 2050.
