Physics 7B midterms will be held for 2 hours: MT1 is scheduled on 2/26/2025 from 8:00pm to 10:00pm in HAFAXA1 and WHLR150; MT2 is scheduled on 3/31/2025 from 7:00pm to 9:00pm in EVAN10, GPBB100, and VLSB2050. Plan accordingly. Do not schedule any conflicts.
Important note about enrollment: To successfully enroll in the course, you must ONLY enroll in the lab section. The LAB is the enrollment section; students are automatically enrolled in the corresponding DIS & LEC. You will receive an error message if you try to enroll in the discussion or lecture.
You must give Physics enrollment priority if you need this class for graduation requirements as our courses tend to fill up quickly. If you are wait-listed for the LAB section, then you are not enrolled in Physics 7B. Additionally, if you are wait-listed, you may not attend your DIS/LAB sections.
Prerequisites: 7A, Math 1A-1B, Math 53 (may be taken concurrently) show less
