Introductory quantum physics

Grading can be generous, especially on exams, though final grades may still require significant effort. Exams are moderately difficult but not overly harsh.

The workload is moderate with manageable assignments and two experiments. Lectures are slow-paced and detailed, requiring additional study time for full comprehension.

Assessment includes a midterm, a final exam, and two experiments. The final exam can be challenging but not excessively so.

Lectures are thorough and well-structured, though some find them hard to follow without supplementary materials. Professor Zhao is engaging and helpful in guiding deeper understanding through additional resources.

Review notes and PPTs after class, use AI tools for clarification, and supplement with external reading like *The Theoretical Minimum* or Professor Zhao's book.
