Comment:

Non-practical. Knows a lot but doesn't teach it in an interesting manner. He will lecture and get on tangents quite often. Labs suck because they are on material that has not been covered yet. It is a waste of time. If I watched a 3-minute video online by myself I'd have learned the material as opposed to time spent in 2-hour labs.

Comment:

He knows what he is talking about and the stuff that is on the test he will have covered. He does take time to go over HW in class and he will answer any questions if you need it. His test are reasonable if you study for them. I would take him again if I needed to again

Comment:

Knows what he's talking about. Some times not a good thing though. Gives out homework which can be tough, but it makes you learn the material. Gives practice exams and gives lots of help in class on HW and such. Not the most helpful when you go to his office for help though.

One of the better profs in the physics dept. Tests are tough, but he offers options to gain more points. Does many examples in class, will review material if asked. Overall, pretty good prof.

Young does a good job of trying to teach very tough material to you. If you do the homework, study hard for test you should come out on top!

Comment:

Very dry and humorless, but his lectures are very imformative. The best feature are his exams-they aren't the easiest but they cover his lectures and homeworks- no suprises. Prep & you'll do well. He's in his office often, & even though visiting is a bit awkward, he'll help you out. As good as any.

if you show up to class and do the homework quizzes are a breeze. Tests are a little hard but most of the time come out of the homework.
