<p>hi...</p>
<p>anybody know the common size of a lab-based science class??</p>
<p>i heard in many colleges, chemistry lab is around 50+ people... so how about Emory?</p>
<p>High teens to low twenties in lab. ~100 in intro-course lectures (although you can sometimes find the odd section or two where a professor has a section with only like 40 students as the max alloted slots. Not sure what's up with those)</p>
<p>As an aside, labs will become the bane of your existence. They might sound interesting coming from high school, getting to work with photospectrometers, yeast recombination, enzyme kinetics, etc, but after plating a hundred times, spending most your time waiting for something to boil/freeze/react and keeping lab notebooks, the novelty wears off. They aren't hard, just after standing in a lab for three hours, you curse them.</p>
