Some repersentative comments/advice from students that they would have liked to have prior to taking this course

Taking the lecture class the semester before taking the lab helped a lot

The lab needs to update the equipment and standards for the lab.

The material in the lab is ahead of the material taught in the class lecture.

The lab provided extra studying and heightened awareness of the lecture material.

The lab was not too interesting.
