Lectures are so boring and toward the end of the semester there were less than 40 people there. Hope your TA is good. If you've taken AP Physics you'll be fine because the class is curved so that above an 85 is an A. If you have never taken physics before, get ready to teach yourself ALOT. The only reason I knew anything was from taking 2 years of physics. |

He scrapped the lecture clicker quizzes after a couple weeks and gives written quizes in discussions which aren't that bad. Hope you get a good TA because you won't learn anything from him. Don't take the class unless you have to. |

| Anonymous Course: PHYS161 Grade Expected: C- April 20, 2008, 10:53 pm | He rushes through slides in class and sloppily tries to explain problems. You will need to be teaching yourself a lot in this class and there are quizzes in discussion. |
