Prelab
- It is graded separately from the lab itself and is a percentage of your final lab grade.
- You must complete the prelab prior to coming to the lab, NO EXCEPTION.
- You must submit an electronic copy of the prelab to your GTA via email or blackboard (consult your GTA for his/her preference).
Lab Report
- You must complete the lab report prior to coming to the following lab.
- You must submit an electronic copy of the lab report to your GTA via email or blackboard (consult your GTA for his/her preference).
