Overall pretty good class; labs are pretty interesting.

Pretty heavy courseload, all new material not seen in previous classes.

Laidlaw's a pretty good prof; if you actually study enough things usually go ok.

Martin is a fantastic prof and makes this class very interesting, definitely a much better / captivating class than Intro PHYS 1. Martin uses a lot of class participation to drive home examples and is a very good all around.

Do all the homework and make sure you get down the core concepts.
