Reviews of professor Leandra Goldflam

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 5.0/5
This is probably the hardest and worst class I have ever taken. As someone who loved physics in High School, this class was the absolute worst. The tests are on materials that were not covered or that are way more advanced than what was presented. Plus those tests count for pretty much the whole grade. Do not take this course with her.

She is the worst professor I have ever taken and that is saying a lot. Her exams are SUPER hard even if you study. Way harder than the homework and examples in class. She does not give enough time to complete it or does not give partial credit on free response. You can do corrections for 50% back on multiple choice questions. DO NOT TAKE HER!

She assigns a ton of homework and its always due before tests which means instead of studying, you will be scrambling to finish hw. Her lectures are not always comprehensive enough for you to understand the material by going to class in itself; you are going to have to put in extra time. Do the extra credit!!

she made me hate physics. she gives way too much homework, and it is not even close to how hard her test are. All of her homeworks, preclass, and reports were all due right before the test so you did not have time to study. DO NOT TAKE HER if you want to get a good grade or you want to learn. (I give her a rating of ZERO)

The algebra based section is tricky but overall the huge amounts of extra credit make it not a hard A. Study for the tests and complete homework early since each assignment will take hours. 6% of the final grade is extra credit and an exam is dropped.

The homework wasn't too bad, however the tests were too difficult to complete on time and the content of the test was harder than the homework. She gave extra credit, test corrections, and dropped one exam to make up for the difficulty of the course. She is an amazing lecturer, and is very much there for you when you need her.
