Winter 2016 - Prof Sakai was really nice and caring but she wasn't very clear some times. She would make mistakes and some times it seemed like she didnt really know what she was doing. Her tests were really fair but the final was definitely harder. She was pretty easy compared to the other physic professors so if I had to take physics again, I would take it with her.

He's an aight professor, you get used to him or to sleeping in lecture BUT I love The Big Bang Theory and he is the technical producer of the show, which means he provides them with scientific dialogue and all the equations on the board on the show sooooooo that made him like **********0x cooler to me. Or like a **********0x more tolerable. I was too afraid to ask him for any hook-ups to the show cause it's sort of inappropriate but hey who knows, had I gone to office hours more or gotten to know the dude, maybe I could've worked up the courage. Who knows a degree from Princeton in physics could help you end up in the show biz !

Fall 2015 - You'll need the physics textbook package (3 books) plus mastering physics access code for the entire physics 6 series. All of this is is $180 dollars at the ucla book store (I'm serious, go see for yourself- it's $177.75 plus tax). I have the brand new entire set of 3 textbooks plus a new unopened mastering physics access code and I'll sell it to you for $80. Seriously, that's 100 dollars off! If for some reason you want the book with no access code (some teachers don't require them but almost every single physics professor does-especially shaked) I'm selling those for $50.
