College6BL wasn't too bad, but it's definitely dependent on how lenient your TA is. The last lab was definitely a little difficult, but if you ask your TA for help, they'll probably help if you're struggling.
Very responsive and reasonable with class structure and policies. Always works through important examples which was helpful for 100a.
nicest prof i've ever had. lectures are easy to follow even tho she covers a lot of material in the class. her notes are more than enough to catch u up. overall very accommodating prof and even modified the grading scale for students who did poorly on the midterm. gave some nice extra credit points too!
Lot of derivations in lecture and a lot of math is assumed to be already well known, but the content itself is just hard and there's a lot of it! Very welcoming to feedback, but her tests were hard and did not look like the reviews. Homework is mostly relevant.
disappointing lecturer. go elsewhere if you want to learn and be respected.
Prof. Popescu and knows the material well, but she's only ever taught lower-division courses meant for non-majors and it shows. Avoid for upper-division physics courses.
