PHYS23 . Guruswamy S 3 Years Ago

Professor Guruswamy is super-enthusiastic about physics, so she speaks so fast that it's tiring to keep focused in lecture, especially when they are kind of boring. As for grading, remember to show your work; I lost lots of points for not showing enough work. Overall she's not bad, but that's it.

PHYS23 . Guruswamy S 3 Years Ago

Guruswamy is the best prof I've taken in the department so far. Her lectures are great. She goes slow and is very clear, and her tests are difficult but good reflections of the material. I would love to take a class with her again. You can tell she really cares about her students.

PHYS23 . Guruswamy S 4 Years Ago

One of the best lower div physics professors. Discussion sections are really helpful and tests are fair and closely resemble homework. Don't expect an easy A, but expect to know what you need to do to get one.

PHYS23 . Guruswamy S 4 Years Ago

Prof. Guruswamy is a super sweet woman who really cares about teaching physics. I feel like her lectures are usually good, but often left me more in the dark than when I came in. Maybe thats just physics lol. Her tests are tough, but fair, which she strives for. Homework assignments are pretty long and should not be done the night before.
