Reviews of professor Cristian Armendariz-Picon

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Pretends to be a good person, but he really doesn't care about teaching. I had to use my friend's notes from the other physics section to understand what's going on. I'm transfering to clarkson for my physics major. No point in paying slu to take classes from him

I didn't take 151 with Cristian but I've taken more advanced physics classes with him. All of my experiences have been positive. He's funny in lectures and keeps things entertaining. The quizzes and homework were pretty hard but he scaled grading in the end and it was really fair.

3/4 into the semester I get an email from him saying to drop the class because I'm failing. There's no way to check your grades and he doesn't provide a grading scale. I talk to my advisor and she tells me to go talk to him because I've valid points. After talking to him somehow I was not failing anymore and didn't have to drop the class. Wat????
