Fall 2018 - Professor Bozovic is a very good Professor. Highly recommended. The lecture is clear and understandable. It might be a little fast, but it is Honor class so it's ok. It includes a lot of derivation of the formulas which I think is neccessary. She has light accent but it doesn't matter. She might make some mistakes on lecture but she will fix that at the beginning of the next one. Homeworks are not hard, and it's not hard for you to find a solution online. There are 6-8 problems per week with medium difficulty due every Friday. No homework during the Thanksgiving break and that's awesome. She has 1 hour for OH every week since 1AH is not a large class. I've been there 3-4 times and learned a lot. There aren't many people so just go to OH, don't asker by email. You could ask whatever you want to know, and I think I learned a lot. The first midterm was extremely easy and I think most of us got above 90 out of 100. The second midterm is ok and the median is around 60. Final was a disaster. Grades were curved so I don't know exactly, but everyone looks like "what the fuck is that" after the Final. Generally speaking, I highly recommend her as your first Physics Prof in UCLA if you are physics or Engineering students (otherwise it might be hard).

I found Professor Bozovic very easy to understand despite what other people say. She has a slight accent, but I thought she was very thorough at explaining the problems and how to use calculus to solve them, so that people with little experience should understand them. In lecture, she goes over problems of varying difficulty but her tests only have very straightforward problems that don't require calculus to solve. Proffesor Bozovic does not collect homework, only counts the higher of the two midterms, and allows a page of notes on the midterms and final. I took AP Physics a couple years ago, so I already knew everything except the last two chapters. I stopped coming to class since I got 100 on the first midterm, didn't watch the podcasts or do the homework, and only studied a couple days before the final. If you don't know physics that well, you can still ace the class, just study harder and watch her lectures. The most important thing you can do is go over the practice tests she posts online and her past midterms and finals because A LOT of problems on the midterms/final were from her previous tests.

Professor Bozovic is a very caring professor. Her llectures are not that great. They are kinda boring and not organized but her exams are pretty easy. She gave extra credit on all her exams and she doesnt care that everybody does well on her exams. Usually science professors would like to give out a few Bs and Cs but she loves giving out As. Overall, take her for 6AH over 6A. She is HOT!

Spring 2017 - Bozovic genuinely cares about students learning the material which is nice. She's also dorky in a cute way and always has really snazzy dresses. Sometimes the material itself gets mundane, becoming a matter of which integral do you learn how to do next and it may feel removed from practical application. Statics is less fun than what follows, but it is the foundation, and when the class starts to meander a bit, make sure to go to TA office hours (Andrea was amazing) to get a different perspective. Midterms were relatively straightforward although the final did have 2 tricky questions that required thinking about the problem in a less-than-obvious perspective. Overall an enjoyable experience and Bozovic is really fun to have as a professor.
