If I have question in EM at level of "Introduction to Electrodynamics" by David Griffiths, should I post here or in the Introduction to Physics?

Here. Generally problems from lower-division courses belong in the introductory physics forum while problems from upper-division courses belong here.
 
Thanks. Then I know to come here next time.
 
You're lucky your professor uses Griffiths. Mine uses Reitz, its terrible by comparison. I brought Griffiths to supplement where my book is weak. They do compliment each other though...

Good luck with your course
