One of the best physics professor! After 6B, I know that physics is not for me. Hahahaha! But professor Pau made me enjoy (a little bit) of Physics. The midterm is very doable. Final is a bit hard, but still doable. Take physics with her! You will not regret it ^_^

PS. I'm really bad with Physics, but I got an A in her class.

Prof. Pau is pretty chill. She's really nice about turning in homework if you have any problems. Definitely go to office hours, she's clears up a lot of stuff. I know sometimes she can be very unclear, and she can keep going even if the class doesn't get it. I took this course with her over the summer and it was the only class I had, and that may sort of make me biased, but I spent hours each day in the library doing practice problems, which is the only way to learn in this class. But yeah, I'd recommend her to my friends, she's not bad. It's the course really, not her. And the TA's were awsome too, so look for a good TA. lol I ended up with an A-, which is what most of the class got, so don't worry.

I took Physics 5B, which is the equivalent to Physics 6C. Professor Pau is pretty good. She's entertaining, funny, and her lecture were pretty clear, from the ones I attended. That said, she uploads her slides and most examples on CCLE, so you don't have to attend lecture. I attended probably a total of ten out of the thirty lectures and still did well in the class. Discussion wasn't too helpful for this quarter, so I did not attend any after the first either. Homework and Quizzes are on MasteringPhysics and Chegg comes in really handy for that. Textbook is not necessary at all, just like with the rest of the series. Her tests are extremely straight-forward and fair; her midterm was pretty easy to be honest and her final was not hard. She also allows cheat sheets. Do her practice tests and examples to study, as a bulk of the questions are adapted from those of such style. Top 15% gets As, while the mean lies at a B, so her grading is pretty lenient. She also offers extra-credit later on. For material, I think this class was the most challenging for the entire Physics 5 series. I took Physics 5A and 5C beforehand and I think this class had the most math-intensive material. The only thing you need to know from Physics 5A for this class is Newton's Second Law. Labs are more similar to 5A, such that you have to do a pre-lab and post-lab and submit on Gradescope, as opposed to 5C's in-lab worksheet; however, pre-lab is graded on completion rather than correctness, unlike 5A, so that's nice. Overall pretty good class, would recommend taking it over the summer with Pau. Workload is pretty light, I took this class with a CS class, studied the day before for the midterm and final, and still managed to ace the class. I'm also bad at physics, given I almost failed 5A, so I guess that says a lot.

I love Jackie!!! she's so cute and funny but most of all a damn good professor. It seems like she moves fast, but that's because she's going in depth because in the end we didn't cover that many topics and fell behind the lab section lol
.
LECTURE: ah my only gripe her is she writes small on the chalkboard so if you can't snag a spot in the front rows it'll be hard to see. it gets better later in the quarter but it's tough at first. she does a lot of difficult practice problems in lecture, and if you don't write down the answers in time, you can google the questions because she uses Pearson slides. other schools do too so you'll find the answers on their websites so don't worry!! jackie takes the time to solve them and explain the methods but you really can't be dozing off at all because she's fast!!
.
EXAMS: exams have an average of 74? I got a 100% on the first but bombed the second with a 60%. her grading scheme is similar to the math classes: both midterms with a lighter final, or higher midterm with a heavily weighted final. they are very clear, but at the same time tricky if you truly do not understand the material. you get a full sheet front/back for the final. tremendously helpful. practice your capacitors and resistors
.
DISCUSSION: never have been helpful. 3 people show up because I felt bad and decided to check it out week 10. it's not too bad but it's like TA office hours so use if u want.
.
HOMEWORK: I love mastering physics. it's just a good program?? I'm not mad she uses it bc you should have had it from 5A and 5B so no additional money there. she even assigns optional "tutorials" which are practice problems with a ton of hints which really helps guide my learning moreso than textbook reading because it's practice and application based rather than passively reading. try them out for circuits especially!
.
THE WOMAN HERSELF: Jackie is snarky and cute! and genuinely cares about student learning. if class time conflicts, she goes out of her way to accommodate you. if you have another final the same day, she'll even let you take a different final time
.
OVERALL: great course and she's very clear what she expects from you. yes it's challenging which warrants a lot of negative reviews from premeds and bio majors who want to keep their GPA up but as biochem I'm already used to getting shit grades so it doesn't hurt me lol. I noticed this trend with my favorite physics prof anton bondarenko too so people are just salty! I think it's when the professor is so clear and then ur like "damn this class easy" and then they ask something that applies the basic concepts u learn but more conceptually and ask u to solve something thru understanding rather than plug and chug and people flip. just try your best and use all your resources okay! good luck bb
