He is a very decent person. However, physics is not an easy course but very interesting once you grasp the concepts. I suggest study a lot on your own. You will however do better if you take the summer physics and put the effort in it.

He is decent. It's not an easy class. But once you put some effort in it (average 3 hours a week), you will do fine. He doesn't teach very well so expect to depend on your own. Study solutions manual and online resources. Tests are fair and a lot easier than assignments. NEVER miss those little quizzes and bonus marks he gives here and there.

My favourite first year prof by far! I'm not a morning person, so for a prof to be able to keep me awake, interested, and almost excited to go to class at 8:30 gives him a high rating in my book. This isn't an easy class, but his exams are fair and he provides tons of help prior to. He's hilarious!

Although this is a hard class, you can get a good mark if you put in the effort. Go to the DGDs, do the assignments! He's hilarious and so passionate about physics to the point where it made me consider doing a minor in physics, a subject that I thought I hated. I'm excited to take PHY1332 since he's teaching it! Never thought I'd be saying that.

Physics is a subject that provides difficult concepts to follow, so clarity itself will never be that easy. The professor does his share of the work; if you want a good mark actually do all the practice problems, assignments, and pre-lecture quizes.

Very funny professor. His teaching is very clear and gives lots of bonus marks so take advantage of that. Physics is tough but to get a good mark do well on all his assignments and pre lecture quizzes an the labs and you should do well in his course.

He gives many opportunities to do well in the course. If you bother doing the assignment, especially the bonus assignments/tasks, you should finish the course well. His passion for not only physics, but the well-being and success of his students, make him an admirable prof! Czajkowski is one who offers "A+ on final exam is A+ in the course!"

Explains the material well, does tons of practice problems in class and stops to answer any questions you have. His jokes and demonstrations always make the lectures entertaining.

Really funny prof which makes him easy to listen to, probably the only reason I didnt die going to this class :P He doesnt actually teach you anything ever though, so be prepared to learn from working through the textbook and printed off lecture notes on your own. Also he's really demeaning towards students. I liked him a lot, but not as a prof.

The subject material was really difficult and a lot of the times his explanations were a little difficult to understand. So read up before going to class! Also he is really helpful and you can tell that he wants the best for his students. Some classes he can get moody though. He's also self-deprecating which can make the class uncomfortable.

I don't like physics in particular, but I love Czajkowski. He's such a funny and enthusiastic prof. Definitely do the weekly and bonus assignments, he's very fair like that. I asked for help with a particular assignment question once and he worked it out with me for 45 minutes, going well past his office hours. An amazing prof.

Hilarious guy, but doesn't teach theory. Read the text! 1321 + 1331 are combined, and there's way too much material, but not his fault. He does his best by us. Get all the bonus points you can and you'll pass. I had no idea what I was doing in this course (still don't) and managed an A. Make sure you prepare well for labs. Good luck! :)

ONE word for this guy "AMAZING"

One of my favourite profs! He's hilarious so it makes you want to wake up to go to a morning class. His classes are filled with demos and are quite exciting. His exams are a little hard but you'll be okay if you practice every day.

Great guy and Midterms can be so easy but if you screw up a simple Multiple choice question its basically over, the Final is hard but great guy and interesting stuff you can do well without too much effort if you're interested in the topic. If not he's funny so tolerate the class for a bit

Good teacher, very funny and clever. Labs are easy. His notes aren't very good, and the quizzes are somehow extremely hard. Final was very hard but marking scheme is awesome.

Czajkowski is for sure a good prof and a nice person with great sense of humour. The lectures are interesting with clear explanations on demonstrated questions, and he's always willing to answer your questions. The exam is for sure not hard, pretty fair for the amount of time he offers. Also, he never uses textbook, he has his own lecture note.

He got lots of assignments, be ready for that. He doesn't use textbook, it is for people seeking for a score higher than A.

Great prof, great class, I would take every course with this guy! The assignments can be really long but if you cant suck it up and do them anyways you probably didn't make it this far. Hilarious and engaging lectures where you learn a lot about all kinds of stuff and hes always available if you go to his office.

Hilarious prof and gave the most stimulating lectures out of all my first year profs. Hell load of assignments and pre-lecture quizzes but the midterms are bearableawesome if you practice the end-of-section questions in his notes.

Solid professor. Keeps lectures interesting. Fun sense of humor. Very easy pass with basic effort.

Honestly, if you don't have a physics frame of mind you might find some of the concepts in this class challenging. However , if you but in the time, go to the dgd's (super helpful), do all the assignments (not last minute) then you might actually end up with good mark. There's no surprises on the midterms and final and overal Czajkowski is solid

Super funny guy. Assignments are definitely worth doing, as well as the pre-lecture quizzes. Go to the physics help centre and you'll do great on all of them and they give you easy marks. Professorstudent relations will be much more pleasant if you've done the work.

Prof C. is definitely a someone that other professors should strive to be. He cares a lot about how the students do and will go out of his way to help and make sure you do well in his class even if you were flunking. Definitely would take this course again because he was such a great professor!

He is absolutely hilarious, but at the end of the day he still does a very good job teaching physics (which is pretty dry of a subject). I would take any of his classes just to have him again.

Great prof. Was always asking him questions, always had time for me.

I found his tests very fair in the sense that he tested us on what he taught us. It wasn't the easiest subject matter all the time, and he multiple choice final did not go well for me because I could do the hard questions but not the easy ones. I would take it again with him if I had to.

(also for PHY1322) Czajkowski made me LOVE university physics. He's hilarious! For Phy1321, he's a lot more easy going. DO the weekly assignments, and try to do pre-lecture quizzes and DGD bonus quizzes. He gives you every opportunity to get an A, so take it! He does demos in class - they're amazing. Recommended class for Biomed students!! :)

Harder content than Phy1321, but interesting course theory!! Dr. Czajkowski is hilarious and does everything in his power to make sure NO ONE fails his class. Seriously - the guy cares that much! DO textbook problems, GO to DGDs!!! Prof gives extra-credit which helps. It's easy to get a B in the class, but you gotta work for that A :)

He is the best prof you will ever have for PHY 1321 or PHY 1322. He's hilarious! The jokes really keep you awake during class. Material is tough but he does a great job at teaching it. You have to do your part tho! He gives a lot of bonus marks, and his exam is MC which is epic for a physics exam. You can't fail this class! He even says that!

Awesome prof! Loved his classes and would 100% take any class with him as a prof again! Highly recommend and he isn't too bad to look at either!

can't fail his class

Considering he actually showed us some of his reviews in class, I'll write one because I know he reads them. He's a fantastic prof. His lectures are designed to compliment your own readings and studying. As long as you put in the work and do practice problems on a regular basis, you'll get an A. Get the textbook for additional problems.

He's a great prof for a first year course. Very laid back in his teaching and has good pacing. As long as you do the assignments, quizzes and assigned problems you will easily get a great mark in his class. Be ready to do some self teaching as he recommends because although it may be new to some of you it is essential for success in university.

Honestly, if you do the suggested problems/assignments as you go, you'll have no problem with the midterms/final. Final was multiple choice, so it's not TOO bad - many questions were similar to old finals! The midterms were a little brutal, but Dr. C gives chances for bonus marks. Don't buy the textbook, his lecture notes are all you need!!

A very solid prof. The course is first year physics so it is kinda impossible to make it fun unless you really like physics. AC does have his funny moments though and probably made the most jokes out of any of my profs. He gives students MANY opportunities to succeed, and doing well in this class should be a breeze for anyone willing to try.

Professor Czajkowski puts in his greatest effort to help his students succeed. If you are aiming to pass that should not be a problem , planning on getting an A you will need to put in the time. The material is tough but he makes the class very entertaining and tries his best to explain to the class. Wouldn't mind having a beer with him.

Makes you work incredibly hard but in the end, you learn so much from the course (especially for 1331 students) that everything is worth it! The man's also a riot in class, albeit slightly offensive. Concentrate on doing problems first and the concepts will become clear afterwards. Old exams are key, then DGD problems and then suggested problems.

He is an AMAZING prof. His lectures are always entertaining and he provides great examples. In lecture, he often asks the students if they have questions from the textbook that they want him to solve. His package of notes is very helpful. He does everything he can to help with review notes, final exam notes and extra help sessions

He is a really funny prof and makes the lectures interesting. His midterms are tough, so make sure to review very well for them. The final was all multiple choice, and he makes it so that it's very easy to pass, but you'll still have to work hard for an A. He gives lots of bonus marks, and even held study sessions for the class.

He's a man and a professor.

i hadnt take phy1321 and itd been a long time since physics so i was actually nervous and considered dropping the course at a point. but honestly its not hard and the prof is the best part about it he has such a great personality like ive never seen some1 honestly do so much for our service to help us do well and make us happy 3

Midterm Exams are straightforward: 7MC (but the grade is X/6) and 5 long answer (you pick 4 to get graded) Final: 33 MC but graded out of 30 (usually) Nice, funny prof, teaching style is a bit different, worked for some people (like me) but not for others.

Dr. Czajkowski is THE MAN! He is the embodiment of superior intellect coupled with ancient wisdom.

He's a nice guy, gives a lot of bonus points and marks pretty fairly. However, he doesn't always explain things well, so you need to study and teach yourself for some parts. Midterms are straightforward, and the final is all MC. It's pretty easy to pass his class, but you really need to work hard to get an A.

Amazing class, plenty of ways to do good in his class. And he really cares about his students. He is a funny and interesting man on the whole.

Great prof, very fun to listen to. The class is a lot of work but you can definitely a good grade if you work hard and go to the physics help hours at the Macdonald building

Great Prof, and extremely entertaining to listen to. Fair, but not easy. Understanding, and a cool and funny guy. 10/10, would recommend.

The Czajkowski man is THE MAN. He is a blessing to humanity from the heavens in the guise of a physics professor and the embodiment of perfection in a human form coupled with superior intellect along with ancient wisdom. God bless this messiah and prophet-like figure who also happens to be the achilles of our campus.

favorite professor this semester by far. Makes lectures interesting by adding in comical jokes. As long as you do all the assignments and pre-lecture quizzes you will pass its very hard not to.

I think Dr Czajkowski is the saltiest human being on the planet. He's hilarious. His strategy is to crush you by starting off with thermodynamics before building you back up with forces/kinematics. He is very generous with bonuses, and he gives a lot of information about what you can expect on tests. It would take real effort to fail this course.

I'm never not entertained by this man. He truly cares about his students and is very passionate about teaching and gets upset when students are apathetic to the course and the material. Most of his questions are recycled/can be found online and his content isn't that hard!

I like his class, especially his jokes, very good prof/ gives bounces, he gave all the class full mark in the pre-lecture quizzes / just do ur assignments and you'll pass

This guy definitely has one of the toughest courses to teach because there are very few people who actually enjoy physics, but I gotta say he made it so much better. Great sense of humour which really lightened up the mood for the class. Gave lots of hints for what to expect on midterms, and lots of extra credit given. Do attend class though..

The course itself is very challenging, and if you want an A+ you have to put in a little more effort. I got a 54% on the 1st MT, and 66% on the 2nd MT, and 77% on the final and still ended up with an A- cuz of the BONUSES AND LABS!!!! So in short DO NOT WASTE ANY BONUS MARKS - THEY HELP YOUR MARK SOO MUCH! plus get a 100% on labs - they are EASY!

Czajkowski truly is THE MAN he was by far the funniest prof I had that semester. He cares about the students and is always accessible for extra help. It's basically impossible to fail the class, he gives lots of extra credit work and if you're in 1331 you basically get an extra 5% taken off the exam. He makes an unbearable subject a little better!

Czajkowski is easily the funniest prof/teacher I've ever had. I find physics boring, but his humour made it bearable. It is very hard to fail this course even if you fail the midterms and exams because of the assignments, quizzes, and bonus marks he gives out. If you're in 1331 get ready to work a lot at the start of the semester.

Favourite first year prof, genuinely cares about students. With pre-lecture quizzes, assignments, etc., he gives you more than enough of a chance to bump up your grade. His midterms/exams are very reasonable. DO THE ASSIGNMENTS and GO TO CLASS: oftentimes midterm questions will be taken straight from assignments and in-class questions.

There are assignments every week, which although is a lot, only 240 of 310 possible points actually counts which leaves out 2-3 assignments. You only lose BONUS marks from him if you ask questions from a lecture 2 weeks ago. There are many practice quizzes at the DGDs to help you. He's a great prof and wants to help, but it's a difficult course.

Reviewers say Czajkowski is rude, but that's because no one understand sarcasm these days. I found him to be very nice/genuine outside of lectures (office hours), where you can talk to him 1 on 1. Many complain about how heavy the course is, but assignments are optional (bonus points). 1331 kids are also salty since they didn't take HS physics.

Great prof! While the content is hard, he is a funny lecturer and makes it really difficult to fail! Wouldn't take the class as an elective but Czajkowski makes it easy to enjoy. Hilarious emails too!

Prof Czajkowski is the only prof for this course and is the best. He can be intimidating, but he is hilarious. His marking is really fair such that you will not be able to fail his class unless you put in no work. The final was multiple choice which was good. Midterms were quite hard but he gives many opportunities to bring your mark up.

Hilarious guy. However, I found I was doing lots of self-learning. He is not the best at explaining concepts, and some parts felt a little rushed like rotational dynamics. However, he is so generous with marks. He gives tons of extra credit and the questions he asks on assignments and tests are very fair. If you did well in grade 12 physics ur good

How can you hate him? Lots of extra bonus points and he recycles his questions. He really tries his best to keep the class entertained. I believe he wants the best for his students but his teaching technique isnt really the best. Make sure you try to understand the content before class and his teaching supplements whatever youve got. Go for DGDs

Very fair at marking and is really really funny! His classes were the highlight of my semester, can't wait for PHY 1322!

Overall a good professor. With all the bonus marks and "gift" marks, he makes it pretty hard to fail his class. He does extra review sessions before midterms and the final exam and it's really useful to attend them. He's a great lecturer but be prepared to do a great amount of work in his class or you won't get a good grade.

Honestly he is a really good prof. He's a great lecturer, he's funny, he's a fair grader, he's clear about what he wants, but most importantly he gives you so many opportunities to do well in his class with extra credit and bonus marks, it's up to you to use them. Physics is a hard course but this prof made it really enjoyable. I 100% recommend.

For sure a great prof. but don't take this class unless you absolutely need to!

He goes over so many examples in the class. This is amazing. Cos science is impossible to learn if a guy just keeps talking and doesn't let you actually do the problems. He is hilarious and really tries to make the class interesting with demonstrations, jokes etc.

One of my all time favourite profs. I was half an hour late to a midterm (totally my fault) and I ran into him a couple weeks later and he offered me a supplemental exam. He's super funny and sarcastic in class but when you visit his office hours, he takes the time to go over problems with you. Amazing Prof. If only I was actually good at physics

At the beginning I thought I was going to fail this class, but it's now one of my top grades. If you work effectively then this class is going to be straightforward. Lectures aren't a must but useful and funny as hell. Study problems and not notes. By understanding this I went from a 60 on the 1st midterm, to 80 on the 2nd, to 90 on the final.

Let's get this straight, he is a tough professor, the course material he teaches is very difficult as well. His lectures are okkkkk. (don't skip them tho) And he likes his assignments way too much. But overall he is a very caring prof that deeply wants his students to do well, his grading criteria are clear and reasonable. He won't disappoint you.

This prof is very funny. Smart guy aswell which made being in his class pretty okay. He has set expectations for students and expects those taking his class to meet them. Has weekly assignments, do them. Also study for a couple days for the midterms and youre lit. Exam is multiple choice, pretty hard but if you study definitely possible to do well.

Really do the work outside class, he might not explain well during lectures but if you prepare the lecture before you'll breeze through the course

He is very good at covering lots of concepts in his lectures, some material is hard to grasp if you don't do some reading at home. He is a very funny prof, he likes making lots of jokes in his lectures. Recommended, even if you don't like physics, you'll like this prof.

Absolute beauty, lectures are interesting and he does well at presenting the information in a clear manner able to understand. Attendance is mandatory and you will be quizzed every class for presence and understanding of lectures. Lectures as homework (3-5) pages of a scientific paper. Gives chance to earn 8% extra credit. Would recommend

Dr. Czajkowski is an amazing professor that brings energy to every lecture and shows you the true beauty of physics. The textbook isn't mandatory BUT it's insaneeely helpful, shows you step by step how to do those problems you have trouble with. Although this was a tough class, it was the class I've learned the most in. <3 andrzej

Tough course but he is a quite good prof in my opinion. You do have to get used to a slight accent but it's nothing major. Note that midterms involve doing actual math and problem solving but the final exam is more theory based questions.

Andrzej Czajkowski is one of the best physics teachers Ive ever had. His explanations of concepts are clear, provided you introduce yourself to the topic first by reading the class notes/textbook. His weekly assignments are challenging, but are great practice for the exams. He cares a lot about his students, and his emails are hilarious! Easy A.

Czajkowski is probably one of the best professors at the University. Even though physics is considered one of the harder sciences to understand, he well explained the topics. Assignments every week helped you to get a better understanding of the idea.

Funny dude, his lectures are very engaging. Marks fairly easily, if you study what he tells you, you will do fine!

This class is hard work but so is any other physics class. He is very flexible with due dates/tests as long as you approach him with lots of time before and with a good reason. He is very passionate about physics and his lectures are pretty bearable. The only downside is there are a lot of assignments, every single week, but oh well

(Had him twice: PHY1321 and PHY1322) Sometimes hilarious and a good sport about things when he's in a good/neutral mood. Imo very fair but loads of work needs to be done in his courses in order to do well.

Honestly, a very funny guy and very passionate about physics. It's a very difficult class and he dives deep into certain topics. But the class is very easy to follow if you attend his classes and complete the homework.

He is very amusing. I would go to class just to hear his opinions and jokes. Great atmosphere. I had him for PHY 1321 and 1322. His midterms and exams are not too bad because of the multiple choice (but was not during the pandemic so be careful). He is super approachable and nice. My favorite prof despite hating physics with a passion.

As someone who hates physics with a passion and does terrible with it, he managed to dumb it down enough so that even I could pass. He offers at least 10% of the class marks as bonus marks from optional quizzes. He also provides bonus points for those who participate by answering and asking questions. Overall great guy to teach a terrible course.

The past few ratings are extremely misleading. I wasn't an active student in his class but ik pretty well that he is so caring and helpful. he changed the marking scheme just to let us get better grades, he answers our questions pretty well, he DOESNT make you feel stupid, hes not arrogant! lots of hw n quizzes but physics is all about practice so.

very knowledgeable about this course, not the best at teaching, but physics is just like math u have to practice to understand. very friendly when you ask him questions, his post lecture quizzes and assignments kept me disciplined (what i needed especially during online courses) overall I love him and I wanna take physics 2 with him too!

I feel like Dr. Czajkowski receives a lot of hate for his class just because people walk in thinking its going to be like a typical bio class where you just have to memorize. Although the online transition was brutal with a lot of quizzes the class difficulty was fine and if you studied, did his questions it was honestly not too bad of a class.

No clue why people are saying he didn't listen to student feedback... he removed pre-lectures quizzes because the we didn't like them, and gave so many bonus marks - for example, for the assignments we only needed to get 50% to get 100%, and if we did better we got weight removed from the final. Fun lectures, although the course is a lot of work!!

I LOVE THIS PROF! he has a reputation of being mean but his character is so funny. he gave a lot of extra work but if you practiced the question/examples he gave you, you should pass. the exams were long but the questions went from easy to hard and there was definitely enough easy ones for you to simply pass. i would take any class he teaches again

He's extremely knowledgeable and he's a great person. Tests can be hard and lectures can be hard to understand sometimes but he makes it possible to pass if you're giving a decent effort. I'm glad he taught this course definitely one of the most memorable classes I've had.

Lots of work if you want a good great. Like a lot of work. Otherwise, there's a lot of grading schemes that help students pass the class. As a prof, he's quite understanding of students and he listens. Very fair for a tough course.

Dr. Czajkowski will teach you how to genuinely understand and appreciate physics, but he will not give you an easy A. His lectures tend to me more theoretical than problem-based, but he does want you to learn. He offers a multitude of opportunities to receive extra credit for participation, so if you're willing to put in the work, it will pay off.

2021 semester: he was amazing. So smart and effort he puts into this course is amazing. made me love physics again. Attend his review sessions before finals. Yah you will have to work hard but this is physics, physics is never easy. One of the best profs i ever had, and only regret is not being in person.

I had never taken physics in high school so this class was a lot of work and at some points over my head but Dr. Czajkowski is an incredibly generous marker. His extra assignments are so worth it and doing the extra work pays off. He puts a lot of effort in making videos doing extra problems step by step. Honestly changed my perspective on physics.

Never took physics in high school and walked away with an A. Genuinely funny/gives us good advice in tutorials. Has review sessions before midterms/final. Also spends lots of time doing problem-solving. SO MANY OPPS TO GET EXTRA CREDIT. Basically free marks and takes weight off your final. Don't slack off on labs, do practice problems, and ur good

Honestly, I didnt do good in the class because Ive never taken physics before. But he was amazing and will do whatever he can to help students that are trying !!!

Great prof, explains things well. It takes some good effort for a good grade, but I think that the course's difficulty lies more with the material than the prof.

Honestly love him, his lectures kept me engaged in what was going on and mans boosted my mark so much with all those bonus assignments and quizzes i really thought i was gonna fail

- I love this man, hilarious, interesting, and caring - Physics is hard, lots of textbook to read, but just like every University course - Everyone loves his personality which makes Andrzej so epic

Tends to be a bit disorganized, lectures are wild. Lots of jokes. His tests are made with enough easy questions that struggling students still have a chance to pass with a decent grade. Lots of bonus quizzes designed to absorb weight off the exams. I think he is probably not the best "first physics" prof however, as he will drive you hard.

Taken PHY1322 and PHY1331 with this prof. Very nice, willing to help, and passionate about the subject, he made it very interesting. A lot of questions that you will have on assignments are repeated on midterms and exams. There is a LOT he offers for extra credit and bonus marks to help your grade.

I'm not sure why this professor gets hate. I'm not the greatest student by all means, I try harded for my grade guys, but he's honestly a pretty good teacher. One of the funniest teachers I've ever had, he should have a solid 5. yeah im dik riding but like hes bare funny and hes my dawg. cant lie tho physics is just bare hard. id do a worse job tbh

He was a great prof! Not as scary as people make him seem. Very organized and has a clear grading criteria. He cares for his students and is very helpful. The course content is difficult but he is great.

The course is difficult but he is not as scary as people make him seem. He is very fair and has a clear grading criteria. He is helpful and cares for his students success.

I had 90's in high school physics and yet the first few assignments I did scored a fail. Lots of problems you should do to help your understanding and he will take time to help explain things to you. He offers lots of bonus credits (15% of lecture grade) which help the average so do all of them that you can. Overall, great guy that cares for grades

Hilarious, extremely smart and teaches the content well. Exams are similar to assignment questions and example problems solved in class, I went through all of these. Offers A LOT of extra credit (15%) and exams are marked very generously. The content can be hard, a lot more in depth than high school physics and he expects strong comfort with math

WORDS CANNOT DESCRIBE HIS GLORY!!!! MUST TAKE FOR PHY1321!!!!

Truly the GOAT of Physics Professors. Incredibly hilarious. fun lectures and very generous marker. While lectures are complicated, he still gives hours and hours of extra recordings to make sure that everyone learns the material. So much extra credit, that it is almost impossible to fail this course. Was an absolute joy to be in his class.

Czajkowski is passionate about physics and expresses loads of humour during his lectures. However, he often gets lost in this passion forgetting touch base with his students. He provides ample opportunity for bonus points and is personable. He understands that most of his students are from a biology background, wanting nothing but success for them.

Sometimes gets temperamental, but is a great lecturer and open to answering questions. He's also a fairly easy grader.

A lot of emphasis on examples from lectures on exams. GO TO CLASS!! Assignment and quiz questions are great to prepare you for exams. Very entertaining and well thought out lectures.

15% extra credit available, midterms are easy to do well on with generous partial marks, lengthy assignments, lectures are worth going to.

One of the best teacher I've had so far. He's really passionate about physics and open to answering questions. Offers a 15% extra credit and and exams are marked very generously. Content can be hard but all the exam/midterms questions are from the post lecture quiz and assignment questions. Very helpful and entertaining!

Literal Icon. Words cannot describe the experience. Jk they can. He's generous with extra credit and marks. In order to succeed you have to actually put effort in. Assessments relate to lecture content, quizzes and assignments he gives throughout the semester. Lectures are interactive fun and engaging. Overall great highschool to uni transition!

He's a really good prof and is very generous with grading. He does reviews for his students leading up to the midterms and has a positive attitude. Physics is a difficult course so there's going to be people that don't like him because of the course, but he's genuinely a good dude.

Professor Czajkowski is very passionate about physics. I had him for both PHY1321 and PHY1322 and he is definitely one of my favourite professors. In PHY1322 he was very easygoing, making jokes with the class often. The questions on the tests are taken almost directly from the assignments and extra-credit quizzes, so do those and you'll do great.

Andrzej gives many opportunities for students to get extra marks through his post lecture quizes. So unless your lazy you can get a extra 15% towards your final grade. He also puts all that content on his midterms and exams so if you take the time to do them it really pays off.

The professor is hilarious, i think he is very knowledgeable and knows everything about everything in physics. He re recorded sooo many lectures that hadnt recorded properly during class time to make sure we had recorded material. That extra step helped me a lot as well as having the textbook. His explanations were good, pretty straight forward.

If you do all the extra credits, and if you did well enough on other parts of this class, you can pass this course even with a 0% on the final. I only studied for this class during assignments, labs and quizzes, 8 hours before each midterm and 8 hours before the final, learn how to use the formula sheet and you can pass this class with a B+ easily.

This professor is really good, make sure if you're having trouble GO TO HIS OFFICE HOURS! If you're having trouble with a concept (despite sounding scary) - he's laid back and wants you to learn. He gives so much extra credit- and it's an easy A+ if you can get your hands on extra material.

Physics is not necessarily an easy subject to learn but this prof conveys it well. Its simply a matter of consistent practice reading the textbook and attending every lecture. Don't use Chegg on the assignments actually try the problems because they come back on exams.

Physics 1 can be tough, especially the thermodynamics part. This prof conveys the material effectively, and gives plenty of hw to practice. Lots of points earned in different ways. Make sure to actually do the problems because they come back on exams (exams are representative of what we learned). he is available outside of class

If you do all the homework, you will do ok. He goes over most problems for the biweekly homework assignments. The lab portion is easy so it could boost your mark. Got funnier as the semester ended. Only class I laughed in. Overall Challenging course because it requires effort.

Although this was by far the hardest class (and 1321) I will probably ever take in my program, & it kept me up crying many nights, I loved having Prof Czajkowski. His professionalism and passion for physics is amazing to see in every single lecture. Class requires a LOT of self-teaching, as he focuses a lot on theory. He offers a lot of easy marks.

This prof cares so much about all his students succeeding and understanding material. He devotes so much of his time to help his students and provides so many opportunities to do well in his course, like countless extra credit work, up to 15% of your course grade. Happy to have him again.

I had no desire to take physics based off previous experience in high school. I resented the fact I had to take physics. That ended up changing midway through the semester with the prof. The content is tough but the professor is more than fair and gave out numerous bonus points throughout the semester from online quizzes and assignments.

Professor Czajkowski is very funny and cares about students' success. Tests aren't easy but the marking is very generous (+ bonus questions too) and many questions are reused from quizzes and assignments. Midterms weren't too bad, but the final exam was very difficult. Lots of extra credit is also given and the labs are simple.

The professor covers a lot of material, so self-study is key. Doing the homework and using resources like unstuckstudy ai can really help. He cares about students and provides extra credit, but the course is still challenging. Overall, a rewarding experience with the right approach.

Dr. Czajkowski genuinely cares about his students and has designed the class in such a way that you cannot fail. He brings humour to an otherwise serious subject and has made Physics enjoyable. Do you need to put in the work? Of course, but that was quite clear right from the start - many people have simply forgotten, hence the one-sided reviews.

In the first mudterm I achived D I hoped to just pass the course. In the second mid I solved all past exams and achived neay full mark. He his soo generous . Imagine I got A and I meeded two marks to get A+. Believe me in the start u gonna curse him and in the end u will see him as ur saver

Attend the classes, don't rec if you're not comfortable with 12 u material

In all honesty, the only reason people hate this professor is because of the difficulty of the course but that's not cuz of the professor. He cares about his students and wants them to succeed. He gives them extra credit from the start and if you do that then you should be good. Beware though, the course is difficult so put in the work from day 1!

Professor Czajkowski is very caring and hilarious and gives many opportunities for extra credit. The final was a little tough but overall fair if you study hard and in advance. His syllabus is well detailed and instructions are concise and straightforward. His midterms are very similar to the assignments.

Dr. Czajkowski is an amazing prof and I unfortunately will never take him again as he teaches purely first year physics courses. He gives a lot of extra credit, and while this may come off as "too much work" for many, the quizzes are optional, and the assignments help immensely towards the midterms. My goat I will miss you and your humour

I've had Dr. Czajkowski for both PHY1321 and PHY1322 this year and I have to say, he's arguably the best prof I've had this year (if anything, he'd be tied for it). Super clear on his grading schemes, quite generous on marking, and although gives a lot of work, makes it worth it by having it count for extra credit. I'll miss him

This teacher get unfair rough reviews. He is honestly one of the most caring first year profs!! He clearly indicates what is going to be on tests, and provides a lot of opportunities for bonus work to bring up your grade. HE IS AN AMAZING PROF!!

This course and professor taught me to critically think and challenged me more than my other courses, but if you can take the time to understand everything, it is not bad. Professor made frequent mistakes in assignments and sometimes exams.

More challenging than other courses, but putting in work on your own time will be beneficial. Assignments and post-lecture quizzes speak of larger volume of problems compared to PHY1321.

He is so funny but oh my god physics is actually hell. It's tough because he expects you to have a foundation in physics before his class, even though 1330 is for the students that didn't take it in HS. He gives TONS of practice questions and extra credit so that's nice.

I don't think these ratings do justice to him. I had him for 1321 and 1322 last year and I would 1000% take his class again. He is funny, caring, and provides lots of opportunities for students to do well. If you are willing to put in the work you will do more than just fine. Physics is a hard but the way he set up the course makes it a lot easier.

Quizzes at the end of most lectures but they encourage you to pay attention especially when some lectures are boring. Multiple choice questions on the midterm and exam are mostly based off key terms he posts. Hard long answer questions on midterm/exam which kind of tanks you but if you do the extra credit work he will save your grade in the end.

Tough class, but if you practice a lot, you'll be fine.

Very good prof, he's funny and likeable. I did drop the course, but it had nothing to do with the prof. I think his lectures are very engaging and he explains things pretty well. However, he does rely on a lot of previous knowledge for the course and it was somewhat difficult to keep up with workload. Overall, great prof but tricky course.

Although I HATE physics (and I mean me and physics are worst enemies) it was very enjoyable to come to class and sit through his lectures. Lots of cool demonstrations and he has a big personality & is very nice. Content wise I would never wish this on my worst enemy but honestly its not the profs fault its just physics.

Professor Czajkowski makes physics quite enjoyable, he's a very clever and interactive guy, he's definitely got a big heart towards his students. The course is very difficult if you are not spending 2 hours doing practice questions after a lecture. As a first year student adjusting to the workload, its a lot but its made worthwhile by his humour.

Amazing prof, gives tons of extra credit, super approachable after class and is hilarious. The class itself is really difficult though and was more work than all my other classes combined as the assignments are long but are helpful for midterms and exam which are all difficult, and I wish he'd post his notes or record his lectures.

This guy is funny as hell. His lectures could be better, but if you know what you're doing, it's fine. Assignments took a bit of time, but aren't too hard, and serve as good practice. Midterms were pretty easy all things considered. Final was lowk brutal, but he gives so much extra credit it shouldn't be too bad

At the beginning of the semester, I thought I was cooked because of the prof. After the semester, I was cooked because of myself. Its a hard course from start to finish but extremely rewarding. The prof is very passionate, funny and tries his best to teach every topic thoroughly. Final was challenging but he gives a lot of extra credit.
