Laboratoried.
June 2nd, 2005 | by john |Last week, I spent a little less than 16 hours in lab for one lab course. We have two 3-hour labs per week; each lab is always due a week after the assigned laboratory time and each lab takes at least 5 hours to finish. On top of that, we have homework assignments for each lab which take anywhere around 3 hours outside of lab.
The kicker? This is supposed to be a 2-hour laboratory course.
In the end, I am glad that I will get this course over during the Summer instead of in the fall because 1) I’m taking one other class that is not as strenuous as other ECE courses I’ve taken so I’ll have more time to focus on this lab class and 2) Summer semesters are really never relaxed as I’ve heard but this lab kind of packs 4 months of material into 2.5 months so better to get it over within a shorter period of time instead of for 4 months.
Anyway, I’m taking a bit of time adjusting into this whole Summer semester thing. I haven’t really been too efficient with my schedule outside of getting my school work completed, I need to try to find a part-time job somewhere while starting to prepare for finding a full-time position for after Graduation.
Anyway, for all my friends not in the ATL this Summer, feel free to email or give my cell a ring!
