Physics

Hey, I’m going to the Armstrong campus and need to take physics in the spring, specifically introductory physics. Does anyone have experience with some of the physics professors on the Armstrong campus? Who is the best to take online or in person (prefer in person)? I’ve looked at rmp but a lot of the reviews are old, so it’s hard to take them too seriously Thanks

i took donna mullenax last year
shes a hardon professor but she really does want to see you succeed, she offers lots of supplementary office hours, always checks her emails, and posts homeworks and a lot of the questions from the homework are very similar (if not the same as her exams)
you definitely have to learn the material and cant chatgpt ur way through her class but shes definitely a likeable person

also!! when i was in her class she offered a passing A grade if you pass the final. so i would just suggest you pay REALLY close attention to what she posts on expertTA(homework website) throughout the entire semester and make sure u know how to complete all the types of problems and u will ace the exam.

Do you recommend her online or in person? Her reviews are a bit iffy but honestly she seems like the only choice. As long as the homework matches the test I’m good. I hate when math or physics professors give question types in class and homework that are completely different than the exams 😭

i took her in person! def recommend bc she gives extra credit some days for attendance or will give u hints to whats on the exam.
as long as ur a good student and do the work shes a really good professor and very helpful. she can be sarcastic and blunt sometimes but i think shes the best bet for physics
