Reviews of professor Anson Hook

Rating: 1.0/5, difficulty: 4.0/5
Lectures are terrible and he is awful at explaining material. Exams have some easy questions and some insane questions.

In general, I think this course is not good. The professor stressed too much on the details in the textbook and simply did tedious calculations on the blackboard all the time without much physics insights. His teaching style did not scratch the core of the subject. With this introductory course to this subject, do not do theory at the UMD Physics.

I took QFTs when I was a third year undergrad and got A+s. I also served as TA of QFT1&2. So I believe I can fairly judge the quality of this course, which is BAD. His lack of preparation and poor explaining ability made the course unpleasant. The content is messy and lack of structure. The grading is just sloppy but tough. Avoid if you can.

This professor's teaching and understanding of the subject is not good. On the top of that, he gives too tough in-class final exam to make highest score somewhere around 50/100 and class average of 30/100. If you want to get completely demotivated at the end of the course, take course with this professor.
