They're not very extensive, truly - just something for the profs to go by if the student requests a recommendation later on in their careers. Many TA's don't put in additional comments about their students, but I do.
Not like they'll ever be used, in all probability, but hey...
That scares me, I had very little interaction with my TAs while I was in school, but I guess I had pretty good interaction with my professors so it is all good!
My classes are small enough that they can ask us to do annoying things like write recommendations. I have little to say about the quiet ones, unfortunately.
Oh oh... you get big reprimands from Arafel. :) Then again, most of the time you were someone else's problem... This is a lab course, though, and I doubt you didn't show up for labs. Precepts/recitations were a different story for me, I blew those off most of the time as well.
Ah, well to tell you the truth most of the time my last couple years I didn't do labs either, but that was just because you only had to show up if you needed help, and I chose to sleep in!
My labs were, at the least, two-credit courses, so not showing up meant a big F. P-chem lab was purest torture, but I got through it... and have the scars to show for it. Even the professors admitted that it was a crappy course.
Ah, usually our labs went with 4 credit courses, where you would do 3 days a week lecture and 1 day a week lab. Before semesters they were 5 credits, but being 4 credits is a better deal since they are semster credits they count more then a 5 credit course would.
I did write a nice report for my pal Eddie, but I wrote sth like "he'll succeed through persistence rather than brilliance... but there's something to be said for that."

How extensive are the evaluations? (And how do the evaluations factor into their grades?)
