althou i agree with two above but newcomer dun giv impression that UniMAP is GREAT or AWESOME yet, everyone hav diff perception, a man's honey is another man's poison, well said. Not everyone in unimap hav happening life, I've seen big portion of the student only stay in hostel and study or some dota everyday, goin to penang/thailand/alor star cost money and kindly remember PTPTN only giv you RM1.5~1.7k a sem which is approximately 6month, for those who got family support them every month giv allowance no problem to travel here and there, but I have friends who doesnt have this lucky chance, they survive solely on PTPTN, and I feel for them...one month only can spend RM300 for food, extra entertainment comes from own savings, sometimes want to hav nice dinner oso hav to think twice...not everyone is fortunate please bear in mind

for those new intake, on the registration day, go as early as possible, my 2cents~

and the weather if hot plus u wear til nice nice like the surat ask you to,

then you will reach around 11am last time i reach there 10.30am hav to walk to the registration plc ady, traffic jam goin in

yea have to pay before pendaftaran or during pendaftaran, I pay via the bank mualamat and just bring the receipt to the pendaftaran to get verified chop thats all...not feel safe carrying RM1.7k and walk around

no needed gua, PTPTN changed their policy since last 2 year ago

I oso using desktop I got frens using desktop oso, but when end sem need find plc to put the desktop, normally my fren will bring car then I tumpang put at his house at penang...

cincai study oso can get 3.0 one just make sure all your assignment, lab report n project do nice nice

if wan get 3.5 above then very hard

yes everything is lectured in english, bahasa onie for wajib course

wait til you meet foreigner lecturer, their english is SUPERB

dwi bahasa and some can mix together means answer question 1 in english then mix with bahasa in 2nd question etc etc, dun worry the lecturer very lenient one~

depends on lecturer, some very strict some quite lenient

off topic please post in Hardware Q&A section thank you!

sometimes pos office around your area is inefficiency or maybe u stay too far from pos office

T-hotel near the jetty in kuala perlis

the duit pendahuluan RM1500 will be post to you in cheque form and then evry sem will minus from your PTPTN, so I din cash it, now evry sem PTPTN is full loan

Lyn can be access sometime depend on internet condition, sometimes adding https in your web address oso can bypass the ban sometimes onie laa

u will be given a temporary room and temporary roomates+housemate for the orientation week. then after orientation week, u will be sorted out to wg ulu I guess (dats wad I experience)

mostly laptop and handphone lost, if in wang ulu, the management will do spot check and go in ur room and rampas any electrical appliances like hair dryer

btw for juniors, get to know all ur housemate and remember their face, coz sometimes got stranger come in the house and use your toilet, some dun even flush after do big business so, keep an eye if stranger steps in, ask them mao cari siapa loud loud they will scared
