PHYSICS LABS
- 9 labs in total
- labs are worth 12.5% of your over all mark
- there is a pre-lab before each lab which serves as an entry ticket for you to enter the lab (not for marks)
- labs are easy in a sense that you are not doing hardcore physics...but if u r clueless, then labs are a nightmare
- dont go to labs late. u might end up working with people who are clueless (if u also happen to be clueless)
- labs are okay to do well in if u are making an effort to understand the concepts discussed in class
- u write all the answers in the lab workbook, which is due at the end of the period.
- dont ask the lab coordinator any questions related to questions u might have in the lab manual. ask the TAs. only ask the lab coordinator technical questions (for ex: missed labs. make sure u have a legitimate excuse too)...the lab coordinator is a nice guy, but makes u feel stupid sometimes, hard to understand, and wont tell u the answer (sometimes will if u are super desperate)
KINESIOLOGY 1Y03/1YY3 LABS
- the best labs EVER!!!
- there is no write up for the labs
- ur lab mark is based on a pre-lab quiz mark which u get 5 days to work on
- each quiz has 10 questions (either multiple choice or fill in the blank - SUPER EASY)
- each quiz is worth 2% of your mark
- if u attend the lab and do the prelab quiz, u get a mark of 0
- if u do the prelab quiz but dont attend the lab, u get a mark of 0
- you must attend the lab + do the prelab quiz to get a lab mark
- while in the lab, u will be required to write the answers for some questions listed in the lab manual. the TAs will take up every single question (in fact they sometimes just read out the answer).
- labs are super interesting:
you get to do dissection such as pig's heart, pig's foot, sheep's brain, cow's eye, and observe/touch cadavers, human specimens such as brains and kidney (they might show u a kidney of a super obese person [ the kidney is covered by 4 inches of fat from all sides
]).. u also get to see diseased specimens such as smoker's lung, kidney stones, kinky intestines, hernia, gal stones etc...in short, the LABS ARE SUPER FUN!!!
