PHYS119B . Dogic Z 3 Months Ago

Was not the greatest lecturer but his heart was always in the right place. Reasonable to small homeworks. Stat mech is his specialty, so I'm glad he got to teach it instead of the lower divs that I think traumatized him. Handed out cookies to our seats during the final and for that he's my goat regardless of how the class actually went.

PHYS3 . Dogic Z 3 Years Ago

Typical physics class, but Dogic is honestly a pretty good lecturer. As long as you study and show up, understand concepts like any other class, you will do well. Also do the homework, questions are literally gonna be on the test. Lecture examples show up on tests. It easier if you like physics XD.

PHYS3 . Dogic Z 3 Years Ago

A good professor that has insightful answers to any question thrown at them. Allows for a fluid flow of lecture material and helps bring topic points together. Class engagement is friendly, and students walk away ready to take homework while learning more from the problems.

PHYS3 . Dogic Z 3 Years Ago

Dogic isn't the greatest at answering questions off-the-cuff (he'd often make mistakes when proving things on the board in class) but he's a funny and good-demeanored professor and I regret not going to his office hours more. Difficulty spike after the first midterm, but fully understand the homeworks on GauchoSpace and you'll be fine. Solid choice

PHYS3 . Dogic Z 3 Years Ago

Right before the final, Dogic decided to give a bunch of new material and not even go over it in the slides. I don't know what he wants from us. Its so disheartening to study just for him to throw more stuff that hasn't even been discussed nor is it in the same chapter. He didn't even assign that chapter, he simply didn't say anything.

PHYS3 . Dogic Z 4 Years Ago

He is one of the nicest professors I've ever had. It's obvious he genuinely cares about his students and will answer every question during lectures. His office hours are also super helpful. His lecture slides were very messy and hard to understand, so attending lectures is important to do well. The homework is difficult but prepares you for exams.
