The seminar was very difficult in terms of understanding the material. In the end, I ended up learning a lot about particle physics, but I felt like I was drowning the entire semester. Overall, it's a class worth taking.

Was super excited to take honors seminar about particle physics and programming. Ended up being extremely confused about equations, Linux, and the concepts. Lecture could have been executed much better. In fairness, I think she was teaching it like an upper level science course (there was no hand-holding and her instructions are super vague), but I wish someone told me I was supposed to look for resources outside of what she gave us. I figured out how to deal with this class eventually and I DO think it helped me get accustomed to scientific reading, but it could be done in a much gentler way, without letting me down for the course content.... I guess an auto-A seminar is the best way to do this, but it was still disappointing.... Regarding the content, I do not recommend STEM honors seminars. Everyone in this class was at totally different levels for physics and programming, so you will either be bored or extremely frustrated.
