PHYS115B . 1 Year, 10 Months Ago

Great prof for 115B. Approachable for office hours and generous for grading. I didn't have to stress out about learning the course material.

He always seems like he is overflowing with happiness. Talking with him makes my day better. His class started out really easy; I thought about dropping it because it was too easy. By the end, I was struggling to to complete the homework. Dr. Campagnari is always ready to answer your questions. I highly recommend him, if you are ready to work.

Two words: awesome curve. His final average was an 80, he still decided to curve the class average to a B+. Very nice and lectures actually make sense (unlike most teachers in the 20 series).

Meh, this class was okay. It was hard, but I would recommend going to office hours since the grades are flexible and curved. CLAS is important. Class is helpful and necessary. Do the practice problems and homework. I think the only teachers for this class are him and another guy who has a similar teaching style so this review is rather pointless :)

Great teacher, very enthusiastic. Definitely the best teacher I had for the 20 series

He is an OK lecturer and I did a lot better than I thought I would. I wish he taught the entire 6 physics series.

Professor Campagnari is brilliant but relaxed in his teaching and very approachable. I went to around 75% of his lectures, read the book, and did the hw and there were no surprises on his exams or final. He's also really reasonable with grading and curves. Wish I had him for 6B.

Overall good Professor, makes problems more complicated then they are sometimes but is very good at explaining basic concepts. Tests and exams are challenging but his curve is more than generous! 75-90% is an A in the class.

This is a very difficult class, but Campagnari was good at breaking down information during lecture. You definitely have to rely on the book to do well though.

Not easy. The final had about 50 multiple choice questions that were not straightforward. Stressed by the second half. His teachings do not help, 1/2 the class didn't go. If you want to get a good grade, definitely read. Homework doesn't really help either.
