Clinical Lab Scientists/Students?

I'm thinking about majoring in this. I have a few questions, please answer:





* Did you have to give a presentation in front of a bunch of people before you graduated as a requirement? B/c I'm planning on going to St. Louis University and on their website it says something about having to give a presentation my 4th year or something.


"Opportunities to conduct research and present your projects at professional conferences."

*Also, did you have to take classes during the summer. B/c if you look at this website, the typical CLS schedule...there are summer courses for physics. I don't want to be going to school during summer.

In most schools in this field of study you have to give presentations. This is to show that you really know what you have learned instead of just test taking and writing papers.





Many classes are only offered during the summer due to budget issues and the number of professors available to teach classes. The same applies to evening classes. I had one class that started at 8 pm and went until 10 pm twice a week, it was only a semester so it wasn't too bad.
