nice guy, and i felt like the course was fairly straightforward. although this semester, our TA graded most of the work such as lab reports and notebooks, and our TA was pretty fair in grading, so this might vary if Ponce himself is grading it (he is 100% going to be more harsh on grading). Make sure you look over the lab report and notebook rubrics carefully so that you meet every requirement because the lab reports are 50% of the grade and the notebooks are 20%. theres a small exam that was also fairly easy, and an oral presentation at the end. make sure you know your experiment for that thoroughly because you will get grilled and feel miserable if you dont, but the grading for that wasnt very harsh (10%). we didnt have anything like 95% for an A but it could be different based on the distribution. good luck! |

I had lecture online and lab in person. Online lectures were pointless - would have much preferred a recording. Dr. Ponce would require cameras on for zoom, which no professor should ever require. All he would do is just read off the slides, and overall not a good lecture experience. There was a lot of down time during lab, but lab was fine. Grading was frustrating - refused to give anyone an A unless they received over 95. He also refused to release grades until everyone submitted course evaluations, meaning we could not actual evaluate his grading. Unfortunately this course is required. |
