• at first i thought these labs would be very difficult since we're using matlab but it turns out you generally just have to read through the instructions, input some values and click some buttons. setting up the devices for data collection also wasn't very difficult compared to other labs, and the tas are super helpful. the lab reports may seem long but it's mostly just numbers and interpreting the numbers so i actually found it easier than writing the reports for other labs as well

• This class was a good application of KIN 121 and we got to do some fun things. It can be a bit confusing/overwhelming first getting the hang of the equipment, but overtime it will become easier.

• This lab course requires you to be very independent from the get-go. Information is provided in the pre-lab content but I found that I only understood once I was actually in the lab and using the lab software myself. The lab activities and assignments were confusing and I felt like I did not have enough information, however, some labs did reinforce the content in lecture. Some labs build upon each other and rely on information from other group members. There were assignments for each lab and a final exam. The final (35%) was 40 multiple choice and was a lot of calculations for the 60-minute exam slot.

• This course is not too hard but it's a good idea to review the lab manual thoroughly beforehand so you know what to do in the lab. It will save you a lot of time.
