Reviews of professor Mihai Vaida

Rating: 2.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
This professor does experiments in class/ spends time doing zooms if the class needs and WE DID. Every person I talked to in this class is struggling. Handful of students excel but that is expected in a class off 200+ students. Lecture is hard to follow, lots of quizzes, homework is easy to look up. Exams are hard- reviews only partially match!

It's unlike me to write a review before the class actually finishes, however I feel so compelled to write one beforehand because this professor is beyond amazing. He keeps his lectures so so engaging so you're not dozing off. His exams are easy and understandable. Homework is actually harder than the exams. Take him if you have the opportunity!!

Truly the best physics professor at UCF. Really focus on homework and class activity problems to study for exams. Balanced conceptual with math problems on exams. He does random extra credit activities, 2-4 question optional reading assignments, and bonus on exams.

Professor Vaida is one of the best professors at UCF, and I don't say that lightly. He makes it very easy to do well in his class, and if you attend lectures he makes them interactive and does really cool demonstrations. He also gives optional things at the end of the semester to help boost your grade. All around, a great professor!

If you have a life outside of Physics, forget it. I am shocked at the lack of humanity that was displayed by this professor. Also very difficult to understand. First and only professor to give me issues throughout my college career. I guess it was bound to happen at some point...I keep my side of the street clean, he wouldn't know what I mean.

Vaida was one of the best professors I have taken at UCF! He last minute rounded my B to A. He has very fun presentations that include experiments. I would 100% take him again.

I love this professor. His exams and quizzes are very fair. The homework can be tedious but it helps prepare you for tests. His in class demonstrations are so fun to watch and he genuinely tries to keep us engaged in class. Dr. Vaida is very nice, always made me laugh, and actually made me enjoy physics (which I never thought I would say). 10/10.

Best physics professor at UCF! He is very passionate, explains concepts well, and is more than willing to help you out in office hours. Lenient grading and fair quizzes and tests - as long as you study, you'll be okay.

Vaida is an amazing professor and makes lectures super interesting and engaging. As long as you understand homework and quizzes, you are guaranteed and A on his Exams. Overall 3 exams + final. Exams are way easier than homework. Has "pop-quizzes" but he always tells you in advance. Extra- credit built into every exam so you can 3 wrong and get 100.
