Dr. Bozovic is a super sweet professor who genuinely seemed to care about students learning. She's definitely approachable if you need help or need reassurance in your performance in the class. However, I'd say she's not the best teacher as her lectures were quite fast-paced and challenging to follow.
On paper, her exams were honestly challenging––and I remember her telling a student that she designed the exams with the goal that we would get around 2/3 of it correct and mainly for us to have the learning experience. The problems were quite advanced and didn't completely reflect the homework problems at all. HOWEVER, she did employ a SUPER GENEROUS curve for exams where the average was set as an A- and the grade that was 20% lower than the average was a B+. The averages for the exams were always within the 50-56% mark, so the curve made sure that nobody had a failing grade. She allowed us to bring a cheat sheet with a front and back page of notes, and usually hosted a review session during class where she would basically tell us the types of problems we need to know for the exam (and occasionally basically gave the solution on how to approach it).
A good portion of our grade was determined by the exams (three midterms, where your lowest grade was dropped) and the final. We also had Mastering Physics homework assignments which were pretty straightforward and do-able as well as the lab component counted for our grade.
Overall, my time in this course was a bit of a rollercoaster but Dr. Bozovic is a really nice professor with challenging exams yet a generous curve that rewards students for putting in the effort.
