  • Just builds on things done in KIN 121L. TA's were very helpful and it was a fun lab. Questions on the assignments were sometimes tricky, but overall not too difficult. One part that was tougher is that the final is a practical, and you have to go in and do a collection/operate the equipment on your own while being assessed. Make sure to take initiative week-to-week and get the practice you'll need to do well on the practical.

  • useful for clinical skills related to biomechanics, the lab report are due biweekly and have word limits, I answered short and i always get full marks.
