Comment:
Dr. King is a great professor. He is always willing to speak in his office, and has even helped me on work in other classes. He expects a lot out of his students, but I definitely left his class knowing the material. Definitely would recommend this class to others!

Dr. King expects you to work hard and will help you when you need it. He will treat you like a professional and expects you to act like one.

Comment:
Unavailable to meet. Extremely difficult to get full credit on the homework and labs, let alone tests. He'll tell you 1 test grade doesn't matter, but that's a lie. If you fail one, good luck to you. Other professors give way more grades to balance the difficulty, including full credit labs/"participation". He shouldn't be teaching lower level.

Comment:
Took him over summer for 101/102, and from what I have heard, it is a lot easier. So I would recommend taking physics with him over the summer...especially if it is the only class you need to take. A lot of writing (but it is a WI), makes you do full lab right ups in your lab journal for EVERY lab. Tests on the basic concepts.

Dr. King rules. He actually challenges you to think and makes you work for your grade.

he's a great professor, his classes are difficult, he is always very good at answering questions and is very available outside of class time to answer questions. my advice is, is you make the effort, you will do well in his classes

this class was hell. plows right through lectures, if you ask him questions he is hesitant to answer, just tries to get back to the lecture quickly. tests are extremely long and hard.
