He is by far the most engaging UCLA professor I have ever had the pleasure of taking. I always had a tough time in Physics given it is not an easy subject nor does it get easier as you move up the series. Professor Schriver explained topics in ways that were super easy to digest. All his material is clear and concise and he also makes that the same case for what he expects you to know for the exam. Each time before a midterm he goes over problems that will show up for these exams and if you are able to understand them great, you are practically guaranteed an A, if not, FEAR not! Ask him after class, he is so approachable and always smiles and is very patient. He always answered my emails in due time and explained these concepts in separate ways so that I can get more perspective on it. I HIGHLY recommend him!

Oh my god Professor Schriver actually made me like Physics. This man is a GIFT to UCLA and I recommend him to anyone and everyone. There is NO reason why you should not be able to pass this class with high marks as long as you just attend or watch lectures and understand the examples he provides. He is so generous with grading on exams as well. THANK YOU PROFESSOR SCHRIVER FOR BEING AMAZING.

The best professor I've ever had at UCLA, hands down. Tells us exactly what he expects us to know. Tests are the fairest exams I've ever had. I would give him my babies if I could. Words cannot emphasize how much I love Schriver. If you get him, you are extremely lucky.

Grade: A+

I absolutely LOVED this class under Professor Schriver. I’m a soft stem major (environmental science) and I was terrified for this class because I don’t have a math-oriented brain. David makes it so simple and straightforward that I was able to end with an A+, despite the fact that I’m not really an A student at UCLA. I’m a huge procrastinator and usually this ends badly for me but I was able to learn all the material I needed the day before each of the exams. I just used the provided practice problems and learned how to do them as I solved them, and in doing that I learned everything necessary. Another huge plus of taking Schriver: he provides all necessary formulas on tests, no memorization needed! He says it’s not about proving who can memorize the most stuff, it’s about showing that you know how to use formulas effectively. I wish every class was like that. He genuinely cares about student learning despite the sheer volume of students he teaches each quarter; a testament to his character. If you have to take this series or really any physics class in your time at UCLA, take it with Schriver. You won’t regret it.
