I have to make a choice for my lab. I am thinking to get either 4x WIC-2T or 2x NM-4A/S modules for my two 2611XM routers.
Which module do you guys think would be better for my lab?
With 2x NM-4A/S, it would cost me $60+; and with 4x WIC-2T it would cost me $100+.
I just need some serial link going on with my lab. If I go with the cheaper choice, would it make any difference?
What would be the advantage of using WIC-2T over NM-4A/S in a lab?

Go with the WIC-2T. The NM-4A/S is limited to 64K, but the WIC-2T gets you a full T1 worth of speed. Overall the general theory is what matters.
