  • Prelabs are a lot of work but prepare you well for the labs. Reports are fairly short but can have some tricky questions. Overall, 262L was an enjoyable lab course.

  • TA's were brutal markers, however the course content itself is quite reasonable.

  • The lab reports were fortunately quite short! The TA's were a little vicious with the marking but I can live with it!

  • This was a pretty easy course. I'm a chemical engineering major and it was more straight forward that any of our own labs. Pay attention to the prelab talk and ask TAs if you're unsure of anything.
