If you're referring to the bio and chem labs, they'll let you know during your first class how your labs will work. Basically, people with odd lab numbers will have a lab one week, and then people with even lab numbers will have a lab the week after. The chem and bio labs might not start at the same time so you probably won't be able to find out if your labs are scheduled for the same weeks until school starts. If you do have your labs scheduled on the same weeks, you can always ask one of the lab coordinators to switch you into the next week's labs (Jeff Landry for chem, and Alastair Tracey for bio)

Everyone is different, I personally try to avoid all morning classes. I also like to have my labs in the afternoon.

Thanks
Math 1B03 is only offered first semester, so I guess switch that with Physics 1B03. That will be good too, 2 labs a semester.

I hated 8:30 classes, but I tried making my schedule so that I finished around 3 every day because then I'd have plenty of time afterwards to work and do whatever I wanted. If you want to end early, try taking classes in the morning that you're good at. That way, even if you're half asleep, you can still easily understand/catch up with the material.

I'm entering 2nd year honours life sci and i was just wondering.. If i'm planning on going into teaching after university - could I teach with a major in "Life Sciences"?
I'm minoring in math so I know I can teach that...

Yup, you'd be able to teach sciences...and depending on how many courses you have possibly, chem and bio.

Here is a good guide for Western's teacher college...all of the schools have different requirements but this is more or less you'll need.
