A lab practical is a type of exam that tests students practical skills and techniques, usually in laboratory, clinical, or field settings. It is a test of practical knowledge and skills, and it requires students to demonstrate their abilities in a practical or field setting. Lab practicals can be administered individually, in pairs, or small groups. The format of a lab practical can vary depending on the subject and the professor, but generally, it involves identifying actual tissues, muscles, bones, etc. using models, slides, bones, etc. that students see in lab. Lab practicals are timed, and students must rotate simultaneously to answer questions. Lab practicals are highly visual and may involve things like identifying a structure, a type of stain through a microscope, a problem with a preparation, reading biochemical test results, and answering safety questions. To prepare for a lab practical, students should identify the key procedures performed during the practical classes, write down summaries of the methods, and make sure they are able to repeat them. They should also ensure that they understand the theory of the subject content and its different applications, rehearse their skills, and find out as much as they can about the setting for the exam.
