As someone who is not the biggest fan of Physics, I thought this class was great!! I will say that I had some exposure to physics in high school which may have made the content less difficult. However, I feel like the way Grouchy teaches this course if very accessible and forgiving. Unlike some stem courses I have taken, a significant portion of the grade for this class is homework and in class Pollevs, which helps balance any exam grade. Additionally, on each exam Grouchy offers half back test corrections.
If you want to do well in this course, Grouchy provides extensive practice opportunities. She gives you practice in class and four weekly homework assignments to complete. I found that the problems on the homework were very close in difficulty to what is on the exams. Just make sure you understand the physics concepts behind weekly report questions.
I am unsure why Grouchy gets a bad rep in comparison to Jency. Their classes are structured very similarly and in fact they seem to collaborate. Grouchy is also an incredibly kind and understanding person.
