Things to remember
1. Check your data before leaving. If your data is off or does not make sense, retake
it. Consecutive measurements, that are going to be used to calculate an average,
must be within a reasonable range from each other. Points will be deducted if
this is ignored.
2. The report must be typed and in correct order. Points will be deducted from the
total, if the above sequence is not followed.
3. As always if your percent error is high, include a brief explanation in you error
analysis portion. Ignoring high percent errors will cost you points.
