12/22/2023 		This class was alright. It was much harder than any other KNES class I have taken but that was mostly due to the amount of content we had to fit in to the semester. Grades took an insanely long time to get back. There were lab reports we submitted in October that were getting graded the day before the final exam. I did well in the class but that was purely due to my own studying, following along in lecture was really hard for me because the topics just did not make sense. Make sure you do the extra credit, it's worth a lot when it comes to the final grade. There were 2 midterm exams and 1 cumulative final exam. They were made up of multiple choice, true/false where you corrected the false term, and free response. The exam averages tended to be low 70s and normally took the entire class period, especially the final (I think a handful of people ended up not finishing). The lab portion was not that bad. There would be a short lecture and then an in-class experiment before lab was dismissed, we normally got out 30 minutes early. The lab reports would be due each week and didn't take too long if you're good at excel. The labs are heavily scrutinized so don't expect them to be easy grade buffers.
