Easy, but also super annoying. My TA was likable but didn't speak english very well which was frustrating at times. It's also really difficult to get full credit on labs--they often make point deductions for very trivial errors.

Pretty good lab. The TA's across the board are very helpful, kind, and encourage questions to help you succeed. The lab manual is pretty simple to follow and the quiz questions are more or less straightforward.

This class is ridiculously easy, but the professor, and in my case, my TA were an absolute nuisance. The concepts are really easy, just remember to do the pre and post-lab. I have to disagree with the review below me, Maxim is virtually unapproachable, and really seems to enjoy you struggle through the course when you make a genuine mistake such as missing either a pre/post lab. This class basically takes physics, and turns it into a monotonous cycle - just do exactly as they tell you and you'll be fine.

Bychkov, while a massive guy and slightly terrifying at first sight, is quite friendly and is a very reasonable person. However, you probably won't see him after the first day of lab, which is unfortunate. Your results with the class are almost entirely dependent on what TA you get. If you're like me and get stuck with a horrible TA (he was very awkward and his English was borderline unintelligible), don't hesitate to contact Bychkov with any questions or concerns - I copied him on everything I sent to my TA, and he always gave me a faster and thoroughly justified response.

Not bad, pretty easy lab credit as a whole.
