BIO2A03/CHEM2OB3 Labs & A Class that Finishes @ 10
Between BIO2A03 & CHEM2OB3, which one has a more difficult/tedious lab?
Is the BIO2A03 lab similar to the BIO1A03 and the CHEM2OB3 lab similar to the Chem1A03?
I have a class on Thursday (SOCSCI2P03) that runs till 10pm. Should I consider changing the course itself cause' that's the only core it has & I'll be commuting next year, so by the time I reach home it'll be around 11/11:30.

Bio2A03 has a more tedious lab, mostly because of the write-ups. I hated those.
Orgo labs are super chill.

If it's Penner teaching 2P03, you won't ever run til 10pm. It was a really good, relaxed course, I'd recommend it. Getting home by 11-11:30pm isn't late at all!

There is no competition between the two, Bio 2A03 labs are a lot harder than the Orgo labs IMO. 2A03 labs are not at all like the 1A03 labs, they are in a class of their own, not similar to any first year labs not even Kin 1Y03/1YY3.

On the other hand the Orgo labs are easier than the first year chem labs and they are pretty chill and fun to do! A lot less stressful than the Physiology labs. The problem with the physiology labs is you would get a set of instructions with like 20 parts to it and no help. I know this is university and I'm not saying we should be babied, but for all the labs we did all the data was highly incorrect because no one knew what they were doing and this led to it being harder to write the lab report.

And were the majority of the tests/midterms for the 2nd year BIO courses & CHEM2OA3 written on Friday?

Bio 2A03 test were written on friday, but other courses were written on other days (don't know about Chem2OA3)
actually last semester most of the courses had test scheduled in friday so the profs had to change it so that we won't write like 4 test in one day

If I can't get into SOLAR & make changes I'll be having 2 labs (BIO2F03 & CHEM2OA3) on the same day - Friday & it'll all end by 5:20. I doubt I'd be able to write a test after that, so would I be able to write the test on another day, even though I probably won't be having a class around the time of the test?
