If you are a rising junior or senior planning on taking Physics with this dude, stay away from this class at all costs. The content in this class isn't difficult, or should I say SHOULDN'T BE difficult. You will spend a while on the same topic because there's usually a lot of steps that go into each type of problem, yet you will see that you'll probably have a hard time with the topic because his own explanations and answer keys contradict his teaching. He makes lots of mistakes in his examples on the board, which confuses everyone a lot. You will get a lot of quizzes for each part of the unit, culminating in one exam that puts everything together and people usually do bad on those. The class is excruciatingly slow-placed, though. To give you an idea, the Honors Physics class taught by Mr. DiMurro spent 1 week on 1 unit, I believe it was Kinematics. On the other hand, with Healy we spent 3 months on the same 3 formulas for that same unit, Kinematics. This is sad because even though we get the reference table and the time to digest the content, some of us can't because of his awful teaching. He cannot teach Physics. It's obvious that he cares way more about his Chemistry class, but he still fails at teaching them too. By the way, the Chemistry class homework, tests, and projects all gets posted on the school website on a daily basis, yet for Physics not a single file has been uploaded since the start of the school year. Go figure. In summary, if you're a senior planning on having chill last year of HS, then take this class. It doesn't mean it'll be easy. Just watch Youtube Videos, they usually explain way better than what you'll comprehend from class, which by the way usually starts 20 minutes after the bell rings since he takes forever to take attendance because people come very late to class on a daily basis. Healy even encourages seniors to skip and come to class on time. But don't expect to do well in this class unless you're on top of everything. If you're a junior, please switch to literally any other science class as early as you can. You will not learn in this class.

STAY ON TOP OF YOUR WORK. The homework is manageable but once you skip an assignment it is impossible to get it all done. The tests are pretty easy as long as you pay attention. We review most of the time and she gives us optional study guides (ungraded), but they are not an accurate representation of what will be on the test. Expect a lot of work as we get closer to the AP exam.
