PHYS115B . 6 Months Ago

This is actually for 115A. Prof Lipincott is one of the most supportive professor I've ever had, the lectures are great and the lecture notes and homework solutions are well typd and extremely helpful.

PHYS115B . 1 Year, 2 Months Ago

Great guy, engaging lectures. He is not the most theoretically inclined professor, but is enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the core material of the class. Homework is pretty simple as most problems are taken from Griffiths. Exams are average difficulty for the department. Overall one of the better profs in the department, but not an easy A.

This professor did a terrible job in explaining things. Get ready to read the textbook.

PHYS115B . 4 Years Ago

I would say even I got an A+ BUT I do not suggested anyone to take his class. He did not make the knowledge clear. If you are not talent enough or really want to learn something (his exam is never challenged but tooooo much in such a time limit), please choose another professor.

PHYS115B . 4 Years Ago

Good class, well organized, interesting material. Expect a LOT of work, reading, and searching for material not in book or for material waayyy beyond the assigned chapters. Exams absolutely made us cry.
