Hottest Prof Ever. Doesnt matter that lectures are mandatory cause you'll want to go anyway, they're very interesting and u have a nice view. As much as i hate physics i think i would take this class again just to look at him. =]
Easy first midterm, impossible second midterm (48% average!), decent final. Freund is a hesitant teacher, but not too bad. I don't see why everyone else says he's "excellent" - he was okay. Not great, not bad. Didn't really prepare us for the stuff that was coming up on the test though. Overall pretty tough class. Lots of homework, too.
Hard midterms and easy final. His lectures were very useful and he did his best to make physics interesting. The textbook is HUGE.
Excellent prof! He is very nice and funny. He really wants you to learn and is great at getting concepts across. The class itself is hard as diamond though, so you better really be ready to study. Nonetheless, Fruend is an excellent prof who will make the class fun and helpful.
All the previous comments are very true. Prof. Freund is the man! I'm taking an 8am class (which is crazy for me) just to have him again.
Very clear in lecture and with his expectations. Nice and cool guy too, hes not too much older than us. Just realize the tests are going to be hard- 40% avgs sometimes- however this is at the demand of the physics dept and not Ernest.
really fun and cool professor!quarter started out with perfect difficulty, i was happy,doing well,aced first midterm,and actually learning physics.then all of a sudden the physics dept. jumped on his back and forced him to make the class harder cuz "its for engineering students".after this point the class started sucking.i learned less & did worse.
Very fun, friendly, and succeeds in sparking interest in the subject. The book is not very valuable, and mastering physics is even worse; (the worst excuse for instruction). Freund is one of the coolest professors I've had here.
Ernest is the best professor I have had from my 3 phyics classes taken here in UCSB. He explained concepts very clearly at a level in which the majority of the students in the class could comprehend. Avg.'s of 60%s were a lot better than the 40%s with Reese's classes.

Ernest has got to be the hottest professor I have ever seen. I took his class and actually went to every lecture. Such a GREAT teacher! His demos are hilarious, and he is just so much fun. I am so upset that he's not in sb anymore...wut am I going to do without Ernest for B and C??
Hottie! Made class totally fun, I actually like physics now.
Ernest was THE best physics teacher that I have ever had. He made concepts easy to understand and if you go to class you'll ace the tests no problem. I went to class everyday, which is surprisingly easy for the ladies due to how incredibly HOT Ernest is. His demos were hilarious and his tests are exactly like the practices he puts online. :) :)
Ernest is an awesome teacher! I hated physics 6a, but he made the last two classes in the series bearable. he has fun demos and a fun guy to talk to outside of class. highly reccomended, although he won't be in sb anymore, which sucks.
First of all...he is the hottest teacher on campus!!! He is a fair teacher..his test are fair if u study..i recomend to study his review sheets and to read every chapter he teaches...trust me!!! His lectures are not that boring..he is a funny guy and hot!..haha.. so TAKE HIM!
he's so hot...i skipped a lot of classes but his...i went to every class meeting. This is the standard of being a professor, is to help generate interest in students to learn more. I'm already crazy about physics before i took his classes. Now I am feeling the excitement again. If I'll become a professor Ernest Freund is my role model!!!
Great Physics teacher - made class fun, interesting, and taught exactly what would be on the test. IF you can take him, it's the best opportunity for Physics 6B. He rocked. A+
Ernest is really a cool teacher. His demo is very interesting and I enjoyed his class. Tests are not very hard, just study the practice tests, you will do well.
Ernest is one of the few science teachers who actually made class fun. He gives very fair tests and a generous curve. Class is actually interesting with all his demos and such. Highly recommended! Also nice to look at ;)
Ernest is a good lookin dude. He's a fun professor also. One day we'll throw a physics party at some dude's house, and everyone will come, including Ernest. Hot dogs and beer for everyone!
Ernest is my favorite Ernest. Actually, we partied with him tonite. He's super cool and likes to help us which makes me happy. He also wants to start a Physics Pizza Parlor which is probably the best idea ever! Burger!
He is a straight forward lecturer. He makes class more fun by bringing in demos. His tests are fair and clear. He's not so bad to look at either. :-)
Ernest is a great guy. Only problem is that he he used to live in a truck.
Ernest completely got me INTO physics. I learned to LOVE physics because of the way he taught and because of his awesome demos. He's easy to talk to and you can even drink with him in I.V. or downtown. Thanks Ernest
