Key questions
Is this an easy A?
Curves and note pages help, but hard homework, hard tests, and low reported grades make an A costly.
All grade and effort evidence comes from in-person reviews.
Is the course easy?
The course content is physics-heavy, dense, and difficult without prior preparation.
Only in-person reviews exist, so the score reflects in-person physics classes.
Is attendance flexible?
The reviews do not clearly prove whether attendance is mandatory or optional.
No online evidence exists, and in-person comments do not clearly establish attendance policy.
Is this professor recommended?
Recommended by students who can keep up, but risky for students without strong physics background.
All recommendation evidence comes from in-person reviews and is split.

Exam style
some reviews say notes and curves help, while others say tests are very hard and unlike homework.
Assessment risk
Standard
58/100
Low score means less forgiving assessment conditions.
In-person reviews mention notes allowed and some curving, but also hard tests; reviews do not clearly prove proctoring or open-book policies.
“he allowed notes on each test and would curve after a point or two.”
“Exam problems are similar to the homework problems”
“Test is nothing like the hw/lectures.”
Student evidence
Top student voice
“Physics itself is a hard subject, people realize in 2A whether or not they have a mind for physics.”
“knows how to teach physics in a clear way.”
“it took me 7 hours a week to finish just his hw”
“I fell within exam average & got a B- HIGHLY RECOMMEND”
