The Busier Times
Life in School
After Chinese New Year break, I had been very busy studying for tests and doing projects. Yup, 4 tests (2 are all MCQ, 1 is MCQ + Short Answer, and the last 1 is completely Short Answer). Have been studying almost non-stop from about 2 weeks, and also have to prepare the helpsheet for CS1231. MA1506 tests is fine, MLE1101 test ask questions that you will never expect them to ask, CS1102C... Well, to me this is a test about luck... Think those programs that I wrote for that tests are uncompilable... Well, it's not that you can bring in you laptop and use Dev-C++ and tests whether it can compile and work or not. CS1231 test is basically a test of your logical and reasoning (mathematical reasoning, of course) skills. This also means that it is either you know, or you don't know. Yup, it's not really a studying module (in fact, it is not a studying module at all), it's mostly about how good your IQ is. If your IQ is high, you'll get high marks. If not, you'll get low marks.
Anyway, so far I've only got back the test results for 1 module, MA1506. Well, the MLE1101 test results are ready, but the department don'y want to released them yet, as some of the people have not took the test yet... Well, I'm presuming that they are going to use the same questions for the make-up test. For CS1102C, the lecturer had flew to Japan for some conference, so don't think we would be able to get our results so soon, since the test have to be mark by human as well. For CS1231, the lecturer said that we would be getting the results by next Wednesday, just hope for the best for that module.
After all the tests, I still have projects to rush on, EG1413 position paper and SSA2202 project. Yup, for Ctritical Thinking and Writing position paper, our group memebers basically just rush through the introductions and recommendations, adding the conclusion at the very last minute. Things are just so rush, and there's so little time, so we had to spend nights completing the position paper, in which the first draft is due just today. Yup, now I have panda eyes. Other than position paper, I also have SSA2202 projects to rush on. The deadlines are coming up (which is just next Friday), and we haven't write part A and B for the projects... Look like we concentrate a lot about the content that we haven't come up with part A and B (which is basically just our introductions to the article we are intending to discuss on the project).
Just this week, we received back our critique assignments. There are some people who did very well, scoring more than 80 marks for that. There are also unfortunate ones that got about 50+, because their tutors are very strict in the marking. Well, at least I managed to get 60+, which is somewhere at the peak of the bell curve, and I'm satisfied about that given the fac that I'm quite weak and my language (I have to take the bridging English module course EAP in the 1st semester).
After this week, we will only have 1 more CTW tutorial left, which is on the last week of the school. For the position paper, our group is the first to do the conferencing and oral defense within the class. We will have our conferencing next wednesday and oral defense next next Friday. Yup, after our oral defence, I also have CS1102C practical exam the next day... Looks like there will be another mind-stressful week coming up...
