FREUND E G
I love Freund. His exams are purely based on the weekly quizzes. As long as you memorize how to do those specific questions, you can basically score 100% on every exam. Attendance isn't mandatory, so I stopped going halfway through the quarter because his lectures are a little boring. But, he tries his best to joke and make them interesting.
Given the choice between him and Geller, I'd choose Freund in a heartbeat. He's super funny and relatable, and he explains things well. His test and quiz questions are also super basic Your grade is only based on the midterms, final, and quizzes. Not many practice materials besides practice midterms/finals and quizzes
bro he graded harder than geller this quarter
would sdssdsds
Freund is amazing and his lectures are very engaging. If you do the practice questions you will be fine on the exams. There are a lot of wee little quizzes for homework but they are not too bad. The demonstrations are so fun and I like how he also cannot stand how long lectures are.
Freund is the goat, that's it, that's the review. Do not miss his last class of 6C -- there was a special guest appearance, that's all I can say.
The lectures are decent, but what makes Freund such a great professor is how clear and straightforward the course structure is. The practice problems for each module are nearly identical to the quiz and exam problems, and there are notes/videos on Canvas for each lecture topic.
Freund is the best physics prof. Physics lectures can get boring, but he does his best to keep everyone's attention by cracking jokes and doing demonstrations. His exams are easy, because they're like his homework quizzes and practice tests. He answers questions on his discussion forums frequently and whenever students have questions. Nice guy.
It's literally a Christmas miracle I passed this class I don't know how this happened. Don't get me wrong this man is my day 1 opp, but he did something magical to his curve to get me to pass. I could never make sense of what he was trying to say/teach, he would never produce a coherent thought or sentence. Bro has the worst ADHD I've ever seen
Freund is a sweetie pie and you can tell he cares but he also is super frantic and anxious and seems to struggle getting his ideas out in an understandable way. Chiller though
He simplifies material so much, avoids calculus equations and, goes over practice problems which help for each module. Great professor. You always know what to expect for midterms and finals because it's the same as all the practice problems.
TLDR: Take Geller physics for easy A. When I got to UCSB, I was clueless about physics. Everyone else discussed energy while I was still learning kinematics. When I got one module, my peers were light-years ahead. I wanted to cry into my textbooks, but it was this demon called Achieve. All my friends in 6A with Geller had it easier than me. :(
