waste of time. he will confuse you if you go to class... better off staying at home and reading the book. Not a good teacher, puts you to sleep... easy lab though

Comment:
Class is unbelievably boring. Doesnt take attendance. Shows slide after slide but so fast you can't take notes. Doesn't post the slides on BB. Got a 72 on the test going by his material and an 82 by teaching myself and not going to class... haven't been in 5 weeks. Very smart but so hard to follow and rude. DONT TAKE HIM!!!!!

Class is easy, dont have to come to class much at all. Definitely should read textbook before tests. Curves test really nice. Should be able to pull at worst a B in class. Or u fail at life.

Avoid at all costs! Expects you to know every slide of his powerpoints and to have read every word of the textbook. His tests are curved though. Nice guy, but the class sucks. The lab is easy though.

Class is extremely difficult. He teaches this class as if you already know as much physics as him. Be sure to go to class the last day before breaks because it can be beneficial to your grade, otherwise class & PowerPoints are pretty much useless. Avoid class if you can.

Comment:
This class was extremely difficult! He gives allot of notes in class, but they are incomprehensible; he might as well be speaking a foreign language. He lets you use notes on the exams, but they are so difficult that it really doesn't help. He does give a nice curve on the exam grades though...

read the chapter reviews in the book before the test. His powerpoints are completely useless. Just dont go to class, read the book. and show up for the test and you'll be good to go. I ended with a B.

Comment:
Although Dr. Bissinger is really helpful if you go to his office hours, he is not the best teacher. You can tell he loves the course but the material is SO HARD. The tests are on like 8 chapters at a time and you basically have to teach yourself. No motivation to go to class ever, he e-mails you his lectures. Tests are difficult. Nice man bad class

No good, wish I had another professor.. all he does is go over slides in class and then sends them to you..when it comes to taking the test they dont help at all.. your better off just teaching yourself. On the positive side he will curve. Look foward to a C for this course

Bissenger is a very nice, good natured fellow, but his class is really tough. Luckily though he gives generous curves and if you do the webassigns it will help your grade immensely. Be prepared to work really hard in this class, it sure isn't easy!

If you didn't take physics in high school, you are screwed. He is not helpful towards problems and he does not always make things clear. A lot of teaching yourself goes into this class.

I have never in my my life, taking a class this hard. I have a 3.5 GPA, and this class kicked my butt. DO NOT TAKE THIS CLASS, because you have no chance in hell getting a good grade.

Comment:
He is extremely unclear when teaching. Impossible to follow and understand what he says. Instead of giving you the information you need, he wastes time playing with matchbox cars and rolling a ball down a board the whole class period. DO not take this instructor if you have any other options.

Well, the guy is obviously smart, but he's a horrible teacher... the class average is always very low... tests are hard because he doesnt TEACH... he assumes that you can teach yourself through the textbook. If you can, definitely take another professor.... Very UNHELPFUL

Comment:
Class average was a 54, no curve at the end of the year and failed at least half the class. I thought that because I was at least above average I would pass but I did not. Try to avoid this teacher at all costs, he just killed the 3.0 I had.
