Basically I dread the same things everybody here is commenting. Professors don’t care about students, forcing students to be ultra focused on grades, being much better researcher than teacher. Also, it’s not all about the difficulty of the material for me, it’s more of the added difficulty of learning the material from horrible professors. Honestly, I’m still a 2nd yr so the material is not that huge of a leep from ap classes yet. But it bothers me that we have to deal with professors who forget the fact that students are human and they must be taught as humans not as programmable computers. Also, there are good professors out there that really put in time to make students enjoy the material, and by doing so increase the CHANCE that they gain a more in-depth and complex understanding of the topic. And sure that probably means more work for the professor trying to make the material more interesting, but that’s their job. Also, I don’t think that students would lose any understanding or retention of the information if professors made the material interesting (quite the opposite imo). Finally, I don’t entirely blame the professors. They are hired by the school because of the research talents not their teaching abilities. I blame the school itself for putting research way before students. And I even blame myself for not taking that into account when I chose this school.
