Comment:
Don't even bother asking questions, especially if you're a guy. He'll just repeat what he said. I have him for lecture and not for lab, and our lab teacher joins in making fun of him. You can't get past one day without some lame demonstration. He treats everyone like they're five. Just bring other subject homework into class, and read the textbook and you'll do alright.

Comment:
I'm taking like third and fourth semester classes, but had to start Physics and stuff..and he takes off like ten million points for ONE thing like not putting a coordinate axis down. He's the hardest grader I've ever had, and I can tell he's used to teaching high school physics or something, because he doesn't treat us like some of us are 20-21...doing homework is good but shouldn't affect grades of those who are too busy to.

Comment:
He seems to know only what is in the textbook and lacks other methods of communicating ideas to students. Probably because he is completely wrapped up in the details and misses major points. Very difficult to learn anything from. Recommend an online course instead.

Never understands what students are asking. Just repeats what he has already said. Very rigid in the way he sees things.

If it weren't for Prof. Karpien, I would still look negatively on the field of Physics. Personally, I own Prof. Karpien a great deal of graditude.
