Reviews of professor Ananta Acharya

Rating: 5.0/5, difficulty: 3.0/5
Dr. Acharya is one of the best professors out there. He does his best to ensure that you will get a good grade. During class he solves plenty of examples for students to understand the concepts. Tells you what will possibly be on tests from the recitation or ppts. Go to all recitations, study the ppts, and pay attention. This class is worth taking.

I struggled with the material all the way up till the midpoint, when I had to withdraw to avoid a fail. I sought help from him numerous times via zoom, email, in-class questions, and received little guidance and a bit of condescension when I was confused with the calcs - he insisted I should already understand the math and did little to encourage.

You cannot use excel to make your graphs. Your work should be done a certain way. I understood that there was a proper way to do things. The only problem I had was that he required that there was less than 5% error on labs or else he took points off. That is extremely hard to accomplish as a human. Tough A compared to any other Physics one lab.

I took Dr. A over the summer and I was concerned that I wouldnt make it out of the class with a good grade but Dr. A is the best choice I could have made. All his tests are an hour long and he goes over every answer that will be on the test to make sure you understand the concept and all the free response come directly from the recitation problems.

He means well but he expects you to understand the material through his lecture of reading the powerpoint. You only have homework, recitation, tests and a final. Brand new to KSU this semester so tried to do everything by the book

He's amazing, by far my favorite prof. He basically tells you what's going to be on the test. He does have some trick questions, but if you pay attention in class, he usually harps on them. He loves his students and makes his lectures entertaining. Would def take him again.

Prof. Acharya is one of the best professor. He cares about students' grade. There will be a lot of homework in Webassign every week. However, if you know how to do all the homework problems and his ppt, you will definitely do well on the test. He will tell some test questions in the class. Pay Attention. If you work hard, it will pay off in the end

Best physics teacher out there!! Every lecture was engaging and the concepts were explained thoroughly and the practice problems done in class are the EXACT ones on the exam! After every test, he makes sure you understand what you did wrong and then explains the concepts again all without shaming/demeaning you. Super approachable guy-- love him!
