Typical physics class, but Dogic is honestly a pretty good lecturer. As long as you study and show up, understand concepts like any other class, you will do well. Also do the homework, questions are literally gonna be on the test. Lecture examples show up on tests. It easier if you like physics XD.

A good professor that has insightful answers to any question thrown at them. Allows for a fluid flow of lecture material and helps bring topic points together. Class engagement is friendly, and students walk away ready to take homework while learning more from the problems.

Dogic isn't the greatest at answering questions off-the-cuff (he'd often make mistakes when proving things on the board in class) but he's a funny and good-demeanored professor and I regret not going to his office hours more. Difficulty spike after the first midterm, but fully understand the homeworks on GauchoSpace and you'll be fine. Solid choice

Right before the final, Dogic decided to give a bunch of new material and not even go over it in the slides. I don't know what he wants from us. Its so disheartening to study just for him to throw more stuff that hasn't even been discussed nor is it in the same chapter. He didn't even assign that chapter, he simply didn't say anything.

He is one of the nicest professors I've ever had. It's obvious he genuinely cares about his students and will answer every question during lectures. His office hours are also super helpful. His lecture slides were very messy and hard to understand, so attending lectures is important to do well. The homework is difficult but prepares you for exams.

Tbh not a good lecturer, but he's so nice and genuine that it doesn't even matter. Class moves at a slow enough pace that the textbook is all you need, lectures will just confuse you. Tests aren't easy but the HW prepares you well for it. Very fair grader, also unintentionally hilarious. Chill, down to earth prof with abundant office hours.

Professor Dogic is really caring and wants all of his students to do well, so he always available during office hours. The lecture slides can sometimes be confusing, but he answers all questions in class so be sure to go to the lectures. There is lots of Hw, but it is similar to the problems on the exams which makes it very good practice.

That was so hard. But it's not his fault it's hard. Content starts out easy and then the final comes around and you'd rather live in the dark than learn another thing about electricity. Dogic himself is a great lecturer, funny guy, not super easy to reach by email but great in office hours. The 2 midterms were easy like the hw but final was insane.

Two weekly hw components, (MP and written) and the written problems were good practice for his two midterms, which were both fair. Final was way harder than anything we'd seen before, and took over 3 hours. It's obvious he cared abt his students and his lectures were great, but that last test was insane. He's def not the worst phys prof though.

This course if very test-heavy. The difficulty of the tests are also much harder than the homework (which are tedious enough) and are hard to finish on time. Two midterms, one final, and weekly homework (both on Mastering Physics and written homework). I would recommend a different professor, in my opinion. Regardless, good luck.

Prof Dogic tried his best during this time. He's genuinely a good person and even when we were behind, he still kept on answering questions and wanted students to learn. The material is genuinely hard (more difficult than PHYS 1 and 2 by far imo) so students struggled a lot. His teaching could be better though. Difficult tests, lots of homework.

This guy is just another researcher with no proper ability to teach whatsoever. His lectures were so hard to follow even when I was able to replay what he was saying. Homework was so tedious and pretty useless when it came to exams. Which btw are extremely hard. Like cmon dude if you can't teach well, at least make tests easy

Incredible class! Not only will you be lost in lecture, you'll be lost afterwards since the slides are completely scuffed! Homework will take you hours, only to be useless since the exams are homework questions juiced on roids! All because he defaults that we're cheating anyways, so you might as well buy Chegg and fulfill your divine prophecy.

Lots of homework. Extremely difficult exams. Also forgot 3 whole chapters to teach in 1 week left. Lectures are vague. Homework is much more usable than lectures. BAD!

All I have to say is that he doesnt go over material in lecture and spouts out these infamous, useless words, just come to my office hours. If you cant teach the material in your allotted lecture time, then just screw off instead of trying to continuously cram it in with office hours as an excuse not to teach.

Psycho man with impossible exams. Lectures are not engaging and only go over basic conceptual things, like high school content. Homework is too much and noticeably harder than what is taught. Assignments due right before every lecture is hard to keep track. Then exams are convoluted, filled with typos, and ask even harder content. Quit your job.

Nice guy. I believe studying the textbook over lectures is the way to go to succeed in this class. There is boatload amount of work expected of you every week. He even had work assigned during break and an exam right after. COVID presents challenges for exams, and his exams were definitely on the harder side, despite all the work expected!

The final is so hard that I'm not sure anybody could get A if he doesn't curve the class.

Super long tests with confusing questions and lots of typos.

Not the best lecturer. Makes his exams harder than the homework. Required pre-lecture assignments that were very tedious. Assigns homework through Mastering Physics and on Gauchospace (GS HW was graded on completion, not by correctness). Big workload, but I didn't feel prepared for the exams at all.

Professor Dogic seems cool person at first. That's before he hits you with an 8 question midterm just cause last year's students were able to finish comfortably. Curve was unfair towards people who actually finished the exam. Assigned two homework assignments due at the end of Thanksgiving Break with a midterm right after. Unorganized lectures

Difficult exams and lectures were sometimes hard to understand. Using the textbook is definitely a good idea. Tedious HW but that's not his fault. All in all, he's a pretty likable guy but it was a difficult class

First midterm lured everyone into a false sense of security, so you do have to work. He gives iClicker but it's extra credit. In general, a very sweet man with plenty of office hours and he knows the physics concept well.

Dogic seems like a really likeable person. However, he's basically as bad as a professor can realistically get. His grading is cryptic, he didn't give us our grades on the final test, only the final overall grade for the class. He also adjusted the syllabus mid-quarter. You may not have a choice but to take Phys 3 w/ Dogic, if so, shoot for a B.
