The Terror of EG1108...

EG1108 Terror
Well, this is a letter sent by one student to our lecturer, that is being posted on the IVLE.

Dear Sir,

It is respectfully stated that I and a large number of my classmates are having trouble with eg1108. We are all really working hard to catch up in these vacation.

They lectures went too quickly for us (90% of class) to catch up!We are really working hard.Usually when you went too fast, we would loose interest in the class

this is beacuse we were not able to understand things.You would have noticed that a large of students either chatting or smsing and many of the students actually

leaving the hall. Please sir Eg1108 and CS1101C are the toughest for electrical engineering students. I have got to know about the negative marking policy that will

be followed in this Mid-Term exam. For each incorrect answer, 1 mark will be deducted.Please sir it is respectfully stated that we will hardly be able to score any marks and

with the negative making thing our score might end up to be in negative !!!! "This policy is in fact discouraging students from attempting all the questions!!!!!."

Please sir give this a second thought. Is it possible to make changes to this policy? Most of the students are already facing a lot of problems with this module. Plaese sir

we will highly appreciate your act of kindness !!!



Thankyou!

Yup, I strongly agree with the fact that EG1108 is the toughest module. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's only 3 MCs. This 3-MC module is extremely powerful enough to kill all our brain cells.

This module may just be dealing with the electrical part of Physics, but it goes way in depth. The circuits given are extremely complex at the start, and we have to use complex numbers to solve of AC circuits. Anyway, I've check up on PC1432 AC circuits topic, and I don't see any complex number being involved inside. Well, I supposed they didn't want to use complex numbers to make things more complex...

If they really have negative marking for EG1108 term test, thing a lot of people are going to get zero marks for the test. Haiz... Anyway, the circuits thing are just the 1st part of EG1108. Hopefully, things will get better when we get to the 2nd part, which deals with magnetic fields, transformers, generators and so on.
