Course taken: 3C Ma is a boring montone professor. 3C is a pointless class whose syllabus after the 3rd or 4th week has nothing to do with any of the physics or LS series. This class is one of those "You've gotta get through it" type. A lot of SELF-STUDY and even then some things will be confusing. HIS TESTS: Relatively easier compared to Sinclair. All 3C profs are bad. He's like the least worst. But he's still pretty bad.

Park is an excellent professor and probably the best one I have had in my two years here. His class is very organized and the lectures are very clear. And he is not your typical professor. He is a younger guy in his late 20's and keeps you entertained with jokes rather than boring you to death during lecture. Towards the second half of the quarter i went to his office hours every week and he is very helpful. Though he is very busy with research, he is always quick to communicate through email and schedule office hour appointments if needed. If you are going to take 32A or any math class i would take it with him. I got an A in his class and the previous quarter i got a C+ in 31B with a different professor. Just beware that all the smart kids take Park because he is a great lecturer.

Fall 2015 - This class was instructed by Prof. Radko, but was taught by a grad student. Each instructor is different, but my instructor, who was a TA, was very difficult. Although he explains very well, but sometimes the materials are just too much for first years who don't have a lot of experience in math. The grading was terrible, the class of 15 was curved to 1/3 A's, 1/3 B's, and 1/3C's. Again, I am speaking from personal experience.

I had him for PIC 10B. It's about two weeks in and I'm strongly considering dropping. I haven't taken his midterm, and I've only done 1 homework, so I can't give an overall review, but he isn't great. He talks very quickly, is scattered and disorganized, and does not understand how to give presentations. He seems nice. I feel bad writing this review, but he is really terrible.

Schroeder is a difficult, but a good professor. I struggled in his 31B class and I ended up in his 32A the next quarter. He's good at explaining things and usually relates it to real world examples. He also always answers questions in lecture fully, and I went to his office hours once and he was helpful. However, his exams are quite hard. Not the right class for someone looking for an easy pass.
