Teacher considering my background

<p>Which of the teachers in each course is the best and its grading system allows As to be feasible.</p>

<p>Math 1B - Jones or Olsson
Background: Took Math 1A this year. Feel sure I'm getting a 5 or 4.</p>

<p>Physics 7A - Lin or Yildiz
Background: Regular Physics. No AP</p>

<p>E 10 – Pruitt, Schruben, Hermanowicz, Devine</p>

<p>In E 10 does the same teacher teach both of the modules you chose? How does it work here, I’m a bit confused. I want the CEE and MechE modules. Who should I chose?</p>

<p>Math 1B w/ Jones is really easy - just like hw problems, but really boring prof - apparently he’s the highest paid prof at UCB</p>

<p>Thanks stly. When I said I took “Math 1A” this year I meant AP Calc AB. Sorry. :P</p>

<p>lol i was wondering how you got a 4 or 5 in a math class</p>

<p>ninjacourses and courserank would be helpful. Don’t know about Lin, but Yildez is pretty easy. Don’t know about 1B</p>

<p>Choosing teachers - go with the one with higher ratings. They usually curve lower divs to the same GPA, so you’ll be graded just as harshly, but you’ll have a better fighting chance with a better teacher to do well (more likely to do better through hard work + reviewing lecture notes, etc rather than self studying and being naturally good at the subject). Make sure to double check courserank though, sometimes it’s different.</p>

<p>E10: Different teachers for each module. You’ll write down your top choices and they’ll place you in them. The first few weeks are just random intro crap though. look into what professors are good and make your choices based on that… you definitely don’t end up learning anything important in it, so just make it as easy as you can for yourself</p>

<p>Yildiz = Easy A with AP Physics; I can’t imagine you’d have too much difficulty if you know at least algebra-based Physics.</p>

<p>Yildiz was pretty easy last semester, yeah. That may change, but he wasn’t too interested in actually writing his own problems, so…yeah.</p>
