<p>The instructors had no personal interest in weeding out people, that’s always the perview of the individual departments. In this case, the pharmacy department. However, since I was TA for both the Fall (pharmacy wannabees) and Spring (engineer wannabees) run of the same exact course, I couldn’t help but notice that the Spring exams were much easier (and one of the faculty members taught both, along with 1 other in fall and 2 others in spring). </p>
<p>The pharmacy wannabees who survived the fall course then had to survive general physics 2 in the Spring. And they are both the calculus based courses, or I would not have termed them the hard-core physics.</p>
