Imperial Physics is a very “love-hate” course. On one hand, the student body generally loves physics, we wouldn’t have taken it if we didn’t, but the majority of us don’t enjoy the way imperial go about teaching it. Feedback is poor, it takes months to get problem sheets and exams results back. They also won’t give you your exam transcript back at all, just your raw mark, so there’s no way to see how you can improve. The work load is high, very high, don’t expect much spare time if you want to keep up. Lectures as a whole a really good, taught by real life geniuses gets you the best explanations for difficult topics but can also lead to some confusing maths.

because of covid-19 again, we cannot go to campus to take the course. So the experience is a little bit worse than normal. But the course content is great

The lecturers are nice and glad to help. There are also seminars and tutorials to assist your learning

Avoid avoid avoid physics at Imperial!!!

Fantastic course, covering far more than the usual physics degrees - comes with difficulties as a result.

Very good course. Comprehensive syllabus of all important physics. Quite tough but definitely worth it.

The course itself is really varied and interesting and although some of the lecturers do assume a lot of knowledge or brush over complicated points, for the most part, the teaching guides you along.

The course was interesting and challenging but the structure was very bad

The staff and students are very helpful and communication between students and staff and students are easy, clear and and good via emails and social media.

Not enjoyable could be better

Physics is amazing. Imperial is amazing. So Physics at Imperial is great, to say the least.
