Reviews of professor Andrew Wetzel

Rating: 4.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Explains concepts well but does tend to skip out on explaining the math. I was terrible with math but still did well in the class (and I can barely do basic math in my head, let alone on paper.) This is really a concept-based class but you can't escape numbers in science. The professor has a good sense of humor and encourages questions.

Professor Wetzel is my favorite professor at UC Davis. It's funny because I have never talked to him one on one and I never went to office hours because I had work, but the lectures for this class are the most engaging I've been in. This was a very challenging class (I usually get A's and got a B+ lol) but I enjoyed learning the material.

2 assignments per week, each about the readings for that week. Can be a lot of work (13 questions with some having part a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h,i.). The course is interesting and he teaches well, sometimes a little quick but he provides the slides after class.

Very engaging and has a strong grasp of the material he is teaching. He is avaliable through email and OH most of the week and is helpful when answering questions. He genuinely cares about his students and incorporates feedback when given. The exams/quizzes are a bit hard, but if you put time into studying, you will be fine.
