If you dont mind his somewhat tough stance towards the students, he is one of the best professors in physics. Very insightful and intuitive, like his nutshell series.

Getting a good grade is pretty easy. Also there is extra credit to boost your letter grade one level up. (So like A to A+). Some stuffs he taught seemed easy but hard to realize when you should use it. Lecture notes are not eligible but if you listen to lecture it would be fine. He s an old man trying to catch up with tech so its understandable.

Amazed by his stretch of mind and sharp intuition. Included common techniques(Landau common) in hw/exams. Just so brilliant. Hints are VERY on point, seriously. Wants students be independent. Wish I can think like him and makes physical sense out of random problems. Could be harsh on language. Just ask aggressively until un-confused. He likes that.

Says every question is "trivial" or "elementary" because he doesn't want to give an actual answer. Learned nothing. Easy class

I have taken many physics classes, but Zee's class gives me a feeling that he is actually trying to help me become a physicist. This class: fly by night physics, has all four core physics classes, mechanics, EM, quantum, and thermo, as prerequisite. He offers a way of thinking that combs through all four subjects elegantly.

Doesn't have a course website to force people to attend his poor lectures. Homeworks are often a few questions taken from textbooks and are simply not well conceived to challenge understanding of material. Midterm was too easy and final was too hard. Lectures are very boring and course is repetitive and not very rigorous. Waste of time.

He is the worse human being I have ever seen. His word is full of arrogant; he cannot stop talking what his Harvard and Princeton identity, and always talks about the books he wrote. He is afraid of none of us knowing who he is; he only cares about himself. Please don't come to his office hour, or you will think yourself made wrong decision.

The lectures are useless unless its the day before the final or midterm. His lectures on consist of things that must be read before the lectures, so all you need to do is read all the chapters and you will mass the class. I got a PASS

He always says that he is a "theoretical physicist" and has written many books... Didn't pertain to astro. HW is due every Fri and is mostly difficult and math-oriented; tests were multiple choice and didn't involve a lot of math. I got a B in the class at 60%, yet didn't like the class. He yelled at student once for asking a "stupid question".

No need to go to class. Just read the text and you should do alright. But its hard to grasp the concepts and hes not always willing to help so that kinda screws you over. I wouldn't recommend a class taught by him to anyone.

Horrible teacher. Has no business working with students. He tells his students if they don't understand a section they should drop the class. Lectures greatly differed from assignments. Does not understand that which is not science. Lectures were pointless. Only did well in the class because I switched to pass/not pass. DON'T TAKE HIS CLASS!

Midterms and final were really difficult so reading the textbook is a must. First part of the course also involves a lot of math so if you are looking for an easy science don't take this class. He really cares about his students grades so the curve is really generous.
