I'm a physics major and even I hate this guy. If you take his class GET A TUTOR or be prepared to teach yourself out of the book. His lectures are a waste of time, he just outlines the book. Try if you can to aviod this professor. HINT: Help classmates through the homework service message board

Comment:
Dont take him unless you are good at learning out of a book! His tests are 10 multiple choice questions, which is stupid in the 1st place, but to add onto that he words the questions so that even the TA's think he is full of crap. i have over 100% in the class but i teach myself. he is a very angry man who needs to retire good luck if u take him!

He knows everything he teaches and expects the students to know just as much. That said, it is a difficult class. The grading system is lowered to help. A lot of work for one class, but u will learn or fail.

Comment:
Saying that "these people who complain about Lilly are stupid idiots who can't study indepently" is a naive and ridiculous statement. Maybe he's all right for 180, but taking 180 and getting an A is not a rare occurrence (i.e. it's easy!). Try taking a REAL college Physics course and then attempt to say that he's not the worst professor at SDSU.

By far the worst porfessor I have ever had. He obviuosly hates to teach. Don't expect to have him answer questions outside class. I passed but i had to teach myself. No partial credit on test, all or nothing. stay clear

Comment:
I actually liked Lilly too. If you COMPLETELY understand his homework, you will get an easy A in the class. If you donĂ¢€™t like homework donĂ¢€™t take physics period! Lilly is actually one of best instructors of physics that SDSU has. The people that complain are ignorant. Lilly is a little arrogant but he has a right to be since he knows his stuff.

I had a hard time in the clas.... actually i'm still hoping to pass. I work REALLY hard and get A's on the homework, but that doesn't seem to matter to him. He is scary, and I try to stay away from him, but Lilly seems to like the smart students. I think he tries to trick people ont eh tests.

Comment:
The class is pointless. He doesnt teach anything, and the things he tries to dont relate to the HW or the tests at all. The test are hard and you dont get partial credit even though its basically a math class. The guys and A-hole, aside from being the worst teacher at state.

I actually liked Lilly. I didn't even have to go to the class much. I just learned stuff from the textbook, did homework and got my A. These people who complain about Lilly are stupid idiots who can't study independantly and shouldn't be in college at all.

Whoever says this guy isn't evil is either sucking up or too stoned to make a correct judgement. There is no legitimate reason why he is still teaching, other than to torture poor, innocent souls. He's a drain on your self confidence and is happy when students drop out (I would know). Avoid him!!

Don't waste time going to drawn-out lectures (although he does make sense). If you have a question, ask him or the fellow students on hmwk message board. Other than that, study (and PRACTICE!) and you'll receive an A.

The worst teacher I have ever had. Stopped going to lectures since he gives horrible examples and the tests questions are a LOT harder than the examples he gives in class. He is not helpful and it definitely seems that he enjoys failing his students.

He is an A-hole... His lecture really was pointless and many of us stopped going after the first test when we realized how useless it was... I barely passed and I hate physics so I am glad it is over!!!
