It's a difficult class, but the professor manages to illustrate how cool the content is (most of the time).
The midterm was very easy, the homework was moderately easy, and the final was brutal. I don't think the curve was super nice, I was significantly above average on both tests and my homework was >95%, but I still didn't get an A. If you supplement the course with online lectures and any pair of QM textbooks, you're going to understand the content.
We covered time-independent degenerate and non-degenerate perturbation theory, the variational principle, the WKB approximation, time-dependent perturbation theory, Fermi's golden rule, absorption and emission of radiation, the adiabatic approximation, Berry's phase, pure and mixed states, and the EPR paradox. Basically everything from Griffith's except the chapter on scattering. The professor wanted to talk about topics of personal interest like quantum computing and superconducting qubits, but we didn't have time.
