Prof: Dr. Bobda / Fall 2021
Dec 20, 2021
I see how this class could be next to impossible with a tougher professor, as there is a lot of material and it can be very confusing. The labs make up a significant portion of the overall workload despite only being 25% of the grade, so make sure you do them, even if they’re late. The coursework is very daunting, but Bobda means it when he says he wants all of his students to succeed so he thankfully grades accordingly.
3 or 4 homework assignments, about 5 or 6 labs, a midterm, and a final.
Dr. Bobda made the class manageable despite the really tough material. Lectures were next to impossible to get anything from over the Zoom recordings (you may have a diff experience attending in person), but he gave very generous curves on the exams which make up 50% of your grade. Also gave some extra credit as well as allowing you to turn in labs/hw as late as you wanted with minimal penalty.
I was told this but didn’t listen, but make sure to start labs early, and ask TA’s for help as necessary. However, if you’re getting behind, don’t stress as it is okay to submit things late, just make sure they get done as correctly as possible, as that will help you be prepared for exams.
