Some comments: Of these six courses, my favourite overall was Machine-Learning with Nando (which became my supervisor). That's probably why I took 3 AI oriented courses in the next term, but I now think I should have taken one graphic or network class, as these areas also interest me.
I am now done with required courses work, and I am mainly focusing on my research and writing my thesis at the current time. I however try to attend reading groups (related to machine-learning or statistics), and I recommend any student at UBC CS to do the same. It is a great way to read and discuss papers together with your supervisor and other students.
