Professor Watson knows what she’s doing! But her exams are brutal and there was so much homework. All be it a difficult major so this course definitely weeds out the weak. Would recommend taking this course if required for major or engineering but stay clear if you know you dont need it!

I had taken a physics course in high school which definitely helped make this course manageable. I found Professor Watson to be very effective at teaching in a way that worked well for me. It took a few problems sets to figure out what she was looking for. While the criteria was strict, overall I think the extra effort I had to put into explaining my thinking helped me learn.
