Note: I haven't finished taking this class yet but I know I'll end with a good grade because of what I'm about to write. Also, I took this during COVID. I recommend taking this class! He always has organized slides, always records lecture, and he always encourages questions. His lectures are very informative. The recent midterm was pretty easy and it was open note. He is very nice and easy-going. You get weekly labs, unless its the week before midterm, and you get more than enough time to turn in the labs, which are pretty easy and the TA is very helpful. I have TA Lesly Insixiengmay, and she's very kind and thorough with the lab info, so I recommend this TA. There is a good amount of info for lectures but it's not overwhelming. It's not super exciting material, unless you're really into the solar system and planets. But it is still pretty interesting. This is a good class to take for your GE.
