First Post of the Year
Year 2009
Ya, I'm know that I'm 12 days late, but anyway, Happy Belated, Belated, ..., Belated New Year. This will be my 1st post for the year, and just for your information, this is my 200th post for this blog. Time to Celebrate!!!
Modules Allocated
Well, just for your information, this will be the modules that I'll be taking this semester.
CS2106 - Operating Systems
EE3001 - Project
EE4210 - Computer Communication Networks II
EE4218 - Embedded Hardware System Design
IE2130 - Quality Engineering I
The good news is I managed to secure all my 5 modules with just 1 bid point each! =)
Anyway, the bidding is really exciting this semester for me, especially for IE2130 (I managed to get the other 4 modules in Round 1A for just 1 bid point). Well, After using up a lot of programme points for some of my modules (FNA1002X: 1221 points, EE2001: 710 points, EG1413: 305 points), I was only left with 2509 points when the bidding start. Well, the bid point for IE2130 went up to 3000 points in Round 1A, so I did not get the module in the first place. Nevertheless, I decided to wait till Round 2C, because IE2130 is offered as breadth for non-engineering students, and students from engineering (bidding as program module) and non-engineering (bidding as breadth) will be competing with the same quota. Knowing that not many non-engineering students would want to take engineering module as breadth, I decided to wait.
Eventually, I managed to get IE2130 after all the waiting. The good thing is that out of the 20 vacancies available, there are exactly 20 bidders bidding for this module. In that case, I managed to get the module for 1 bid points! Haha, at least I didn't waste my time waiting... =)
Well, thought of taking EE3208 (Embedded Computer Systems Design) in the first place, but I received many bad comments about my suggested combination (CS2106, EE3001, EE3208, EE4210, EE4218). Some people say that I'll have a very "fun" time with this combination, so I've decided to take up another Technical Elective instead. I chose IE2130 because there's no project involved (just 25% mid-term and 75% exams).
Anyway, lessons have just started today, so this would be the start of another exhausting semester...
