This class is awful.... I loved PS107 soooo much even tho it was 100x harder. This class was unorganized and clearly an afterthought. It is making me second guess if the physci department even cares about having a good major for its students. There are 3 professors for ONE class, which is divided into 4 units. This wasn't the biggest deal UNTIL it came to the exams. They were basically ALL of our grade in this class and it was horrible having to adapt to different professors' exams. I got a 73% Tidball's exam which is just wild considering i studied so much and learned a lot. The exams were just not fair at all and defintely NOT a reflection of what we learned at alllllll. This goes for all 3 professors but mostly tidball. But for all 3 professors you could just tell they threw together the exam last minute and really didnt care to see if the students learned the million random things they spent all this time teaching us. Its just crazy because i have had wayyyy harder classes and i studied just as hard for this one as I did those ones but this one I just didn't do well in because the professors don't know how to make a fair exam. All the professors were nice and welcoming for the most part but I dont care about that. i want a good teacher with good exams so i can demonstrate how much i learned. oh also theres no homework except a weekly article summary or quiz which probably contributes to the fact that the exams were such a shock all 3 times.
