I know a handful of physics majors, but it’s nothing like economics or bio. I’m sure the actual stats are easy to find. And I’ve never taken a physics class, so I don’t know about their teachers.</p>
<p>Unless you’re talking about overall teacher quality, in which case I think it is pretty good. It depends heavily on the class/subject though. Extensive use of the evaluations site has kept me away from most of not-as-good teachers, and I recommend that you put some time into that site, both during o-week and before each quarter. Grad students can be hit or miss, and you learn which classes they tend to teach. If you want to take more advanced/honors/intensive tracks, then you’ll end up with less grad students and more good professors. Certain subjects end up with lots of very good teachers (polisci), while some end up with more grad students and not-as-good ones, mostly based on how large of a class size the subject can handle.</p>
