This is probably just coincidence so don't take me too seriously but here's what I've noticed:

The professors of my biology/chem courses: "Hey buddy, don't be afraid to ask questions we've made sure to try and make things easy to understand. Here are some extra resourses for you if you're having trouble. We've structured the marking so that you have lots of opportunities to catch up if you have a bad week etc. Good luck! So proud of you all! 🥰"

The professors of anything to do with math or tech: "LISTEN HERE YOU LAZY PEICES OF SHIT. IF YOU DON'T ALREADY KNOW EVERYTHING I'M SUPPOSED TO BE TEACHING IN CLASS THEN FUCK YOU. WE HAVE ONE TEST AND IF YOU FAIL THAT THEN YOU'RE FUCKED AND IT'S YOUR FAULT FOR NOT READING THE EXTRA RESOURSES I HID WITHOUT TELLING ANYONE THEY WERE THERE. WHAT? YOU HAVE A QUESTION? THAT'S A YOU PROBLEM, IDIOT! frothingfash"

    It's true. I've noticed that if the teacher is passionate and loves to teach their subject that I do a loooot better in their class.

    Sorry to all the good math teachers out there, btw. I'm sure I've just had bad luck so far with them.

      Word. It's criminal that universities are so slammed full of perverse incentives that actually being a good teacher isn't even really a consideration for professor.
