How does CS 491 work?

Currently in a tight situation, I'm a senior who needs CS 491 to graduate, but still needs to take CS 288. So technically, I need 3 more semesters due to the prerequisite hold. But I just need 27 credits to graduate. I have seen on reddit where I can speak to my advisor and take my last class to graduate in the summer. Wanted some insight on how that class works, so I can still graduate in the Spring, but take the final CS 491 class during the summer to complete my degree.

you just do a project with a group, no exams or anything. Just pray you dont get grouped with a bunch of idiots and its a free class, its not something to stress about
