Chose to take Niemann again after having a positive experience with him in 5B. His lectures are clear and logical, his tests are straightforward, his homework is doable, and he's very helpful in office hours if you need help. I have only positive notes for this man for teaching what can be a difficult subject to learn and doing it well.
I thought this was great class. Niemann really cares about his students and their learning, so if you put in the effort an A is very attainable. His tests weren't bad if you went to office hours and really worked to understand the material. My advice is to go over the homework questions and the practice tests and focus on how equations and concepts match up to multiple choice questions asked. As for the free response, go to Niemann's review sessions before each test, he gives you lots of hints as to what concepts he'll be testing for.
This class was really tough. I got an A+ in 5A and an A in 5B but couldn't push further than an A- for 5C. I was only a few points off of an A but he does not round at all. The exams are very tough but fair. If you know the material well you can do well on them, but if you're kind of BSing the class it's not easy to do well on them. Overall, the class was very fair but definitely not easy. I would encourage you to take this class if you're up for a challenge but don't take it if you want an easy A.
Niemann rocks. I had a tough quarter, and got a 47% on the midterm. But I worked my ass off and scored a 91% on the final. That gave me an 85% average and I emailed him asking to round up to a B+ considering the upward trajectory . . . king gave me an A-. What a G. Definitely go to his office hours, he's super engaging!
Besides all that, he really listens to his students and I can tell he really cares about both our learning and well being.
I think Neimann is a great professor for 5C. His lectures were engaging and informative, and his exams were not too terrible. I think this was the easiest of the 5 series, but I received a lower grade in Neimann's class than some of the others because his grading scheme more focused on his exams as opposed to labs and homework. With that being my main criticism of the class, it was pretty okay otherwise.
if you have to take this class, take it with prof. Niemann. he is very clear about what he does and doesn't want you to know and is very helpful if you have questions. Exams are super easy and he'll even give you hints about what's on it during lectures. he does a review before even exam which is very similar to the actual thing. for my class attendance to lecture and discussion wasn't mandatory, but I have a feeling he might change that since nobody showed up to anything anymore.
Take Niemann!! His class actually
makes sense and if you go to class you will do well. His new way of assigning homework on kudu is super helpful and has old test questions. You even get a sheet of paper for the final.
Out of all the professors Niemann is best by far and I wish I could have taken him for my other physics classes
For someone who really despises Physics, Professor Niemann makes Physics quite a bit more tolerable! I've had him for two quarters now (Physics 5B and 5C). His lectures are easy to understand, his lecture slides are relatively thorough and informative compared to past STEM professors I've had, and his lecture/review material are all relative to what he tests you on for midterms and finals. The 5 series is pretty good in terms of professors, but I would highly recommend Niemann for the 5 series!
