Reviews of professor F. Schloerb

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 2.0/5
Pete's Planetary Science class is really interesting. A lot of concepts to grasp but very little mathematical analysis required. Weekly quizzes are the bulk of the grade and are simple fill in the blank or open response questions. In class participation is in the form of a group question not graded on correctness. Final exam is easy if you study.

Pete was thrown a curve ball for our class this semester bc we had so many students but he handled our class project as well as he could. Though sometimes it felt like lectures were a desperate attempt at eating semester time bc we objectively had nothing to do for this class, Pete still gave us interesting assignments and questions to ponder!

Pete is a super fun professor and is great in any class he teaches. My only gripe is this class was supposed to be Astronomy in Global Context, but we learned about climate intervention on Earth. I would've liked more astronomy, but he still made it enjoyable and easy.

Pete himself was a great guy and I enjoyed his class and will look to take more classes with him in the future. Physics 281 was fairly difficult. He posts his lectures which are helpful when working at home on the homework and he is very approachable in class to ask for help
