00:00:05,032 --> 00:00:07,240
EFETOBORE TASKER: I would
say that the key to success

2
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:09,100
for Junior Lab for
me was simply having

3
00:00:09,100 --> 00:00:14,290
the perseverance to continue
to work and to get things done.

4
00:00:14,290 --> 00:00:17,230
Because as I said, I hadn't
done a class like this before

5
00:00:17,230 --> 00:00:20,089
or I haven't done anything
experimental in physics before.

6
00:00:20,089 --> 00:00:21,380
So a lot of this was new to me.

7
00:00:21,380 --> 00:00:23,126
And I found it very
difficult at first.

8
00:00:23,126 --> 00:00:25,500
But if you put in the time to
learn how to correctly take

9
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:27,430
data, to correctly
analyze data figure out

10
00:00:27,430 --> 00:00:29,380
how to do error
propagation, things

11
00:00:29,380 --> 00:00:32,560
like that, you'll
eventually figure out

12
00:00:32,560 --> 00:00:34,470
a way to do it in a
way that's correct.

13
00:00:34,470 --> 00:00:37,090
Because they do give you that
background and that foundation

14
00:00:37,090 --> 00:00:40,000
to teach you how to present
data, how to analyze data.

15
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:41,990
But we just have to
take the time to learn.

16
00:00:41,990 --> 00:00:46,521
So I think that perseverance
was the key to success for me.

17
00:00:46,521 --> 00:00:48,520
SAARIK KALIA: Yeah, I
think one thing I actually

18
00:00:48,520 --> 00:00:50,490
found pretty surprising
about the course

19
00:00:50,490 --> 00:00:53,050
is I kind of expected
the hard parts to really

20
00:00:53,050 --> 00:00:55,600
be like the measurements,
as opposed to the analysis.

21
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,350
But I actually found it to
be the other way around.

22
00:00:59,350 --> 00:01:03,040
Like, obviously you have
to be attentive during lab

23
00:01:03,040 --> 00:01:05,110
and know what you're doing.

24
00:01:05,110 --> 00:01:07,600
But oftentimes the
real difficulty

25
00:01:07,600 --> 00:01:11,050
comes outside of
class, like doing

26
00:01:11,050 --> 00:01:14,575
proper analysis of your data and
really knowing what's going on.

27
00:01:14,575 --> 00:01:16,450
And even a lot of the
times you should really

28
00:01:16,450 --> 00:01:20,371
be doing analysis during
class so that you know

29
00:01:20,371 --> 00:01:22,120
if your data is good,
if your data is bad,

30
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:25,050
and adjust accordingly.
