Should I have Chembio 3OA3 and Biochem 3P03 Labs on the same day???
As of right now I have the labs for both of these course on the same day, monday. Chembio 3OA3 Lab in the morning at 8:30 and biochem 3P03 in the afternoon at 1:30. I may have the option of changing the chembio lab to friday at 2:30. Should I switch it, or keep both on the same day. I have no problem with having two labs on the same day..it's just that I was wondering if it would be a pain to have to do prelabs for both for the same day and whether or not labs are due the next day or not. If anyone who has taken both of these courses can give some feedback, it would be really appreaciated.
Thanks

I'm going to be taking chembio 3OA3 too but I have lab on the friday. IMO i would prefer the lab on friday that way you can ask the thursday ppl how the lab went. I believe there's prelabs and post labs for this course I doubt the post labs are due the next day. I would assume that they are due right b4 the next lab or earlier.
Hope this helps with you decision

Hey Dhruv!
The bioorganic post-labs seem like a lot of work from what I've seen of them--all the components of a formal lab report, except it doesn't need to be written as a formal lab report. The prelabs shouldn't be *too* bad, but they're still work. It might be difficult having them both on the same day. However, Friday 2:30-5:30 labs suck :( Our whole program got stuck with them all last year, and again this year for bioorganic. If you don't mind staying late on Friday, then moving the lab there might help spread out the prelabs/postlabs (there's also **** labs to consider...)
Another factor is how awake you are at 8:30am

I think I will switch to Friday labs. That was my original plan anyway, but finishing early on Friday was so tempting, lol. It shouldn't be too bad, after all a lab with chembio students should be interesting right, haha
