Lab Practical RulesEach lab practical examination will consist of a series of laboratory stations. Each station will consist of a lab item (slide, anatomical model, picture, dissected specimen, et cetera) and questions about that lab item. You will have approximately 90 seconds to complete the questions at a station. You will not be allowed to return to any station. No personal items will be allowed at the laboratory stations. All items must be stored on the side laboratory tables. Your laboratory answer sheets must be folded at all times during the exam. All laboratory answers must be spelled correctly. You will lose points for incorrectly spelled terms. Gross spelling errors will be graded as wrong. Examples are: veinicle for ventricle; fiba for fimbria; ilium for ileum. Minor spelling errors will lose .5 points. Examples are: duodanum for duodenum; epididimiss for epididymus.
