a very caring guy but can't stay on topic to save his life. class was often entertaining, but generally unhelpful. would be less challenging if u didn't have to teach urself. you've never seen a fight until you've seen the silent war between Antonucci and his TAs. he cancelled OH & study sessions a ton. wouldn't recommend unless u have to take it.

I feel bad leaving a bad review because I think Professor Antonucci is a sweet man, but it was incredibly difficult making it through this class. The content isn't too difficult, but the lectures are super messy and go very off topic. Grades take forever to be posted. Don't take this class unless you have to.

Has to be the most un-organized and chaotic course I have taken in my life. The final is in less than a week and only 2 out of 5 homeworks are graded. The Midterm took over a month to get grades back. He advertised for the last two weeks of class how he will have a final review session just to cancel it the day of. Rambles in lecture.

The most unorganized class EVER take, TA don't attend their own office hour, and the grade comes so late. Knowledge is easy but the grading & curve is awful.

This class made me so upset that I went out my way to create an account to write a review. I'd like to say he's a sweet guy. But he's bad professor. He goes on rants for 70% of the lecture and then drops an Iclicker quiz 5 minutes after the end of lecture. His homework is long and difficult as well. Do not take this class unless you like physics.

I feel like he chooses to be an expert on something new every lecture. Nothing ever got done so if you actually want to learn in his class you have to do a buttload of reading. The amount he complains about people who like astrology outweighs the time he spend talking about astrology.

Grades are late.

The most unorganized class I have ever taken. He is incredibly hard to understand during lecture, and barely ever talks about anything relevant. You will not learn anything from this class. TA's are extremely unhelpful, they do the absolute bare minimum and the prof is completely unaware of this.

Honestly this class is awful but I say that because I cant do physics. If you arent prepared to do math and read, dont take the class. In saying this, Antonucci is the funniest professor I have ever met. His lectures are very entertaining and he is VERY passionate about astronomy. I would take him again for anything not involving math lol.

You won't learn anything but you will get a good grade.

Professor Antonucci's lectures often go off on tangents that last most of the lecture. When he is on topic, his lecturing is pretty good; he has lots of useful and interesting ways of explaining the material. Exams are really easy if you read the textbook and know the material. His lectures won't cover all of it. You have to read.

Antonucci is amazing & the lectures are entertaining w/ fun demos! The iClicker q's are on the midterm/final. Read the textbook & stay on top of it- content is mostly from the book, lecture/section explains it further. Homework is graded thoroughly and specifically. Extra credit is available also. Grading is tough so take it P/NP if not required
