They're not really labs per se, more like tutorials..where you can get help from the TAs for your assignments. You have 5 assignments throughout the term, due every 2 weeks..they're worth 3% each. Most of the questions are based on stuff you learned in class, but some questions require the use of a computer software that's available in the stats lab computer room. So basically you should go to the labs, finish those computer based questions, and get help for the rest if you need.
Hope that helps.

You also get the minitab program when you buy the textbook, so you don't actually have to go to the labs (unless you have to submit/pick-up assignments, I can't remember if that is done in lab or not).

just buy the lab manual which explains how to do each lab question step by step
download minitab
