lols, most of the question here can be answered if they just call the admin office...

Hahah, yeah, I'm at home now and it doesn't work here as well. So it's my computer that's the problem I guess. Anyway, thanks

today is the open day right? i might drop by find leng lui to welcome me

Can I know is there much difference in the foundation in engineering in April and July. I know contents are the same. I mean most july intake students, will they find some difficulties?. Since April intake has 12 weeks of lesson, but July intake only 10. And is maths in FIE hard? I only managed a B+ in add maths for SPM.

Emm.... there's basically no difference between April and July intake (not that i know of) except the fact that July intake don't have Summer Break....

July intake has only around 1 week break between Sem 0 and sem 1. The sem 0 for July intake is shorter that April intake's but its only Sem 0, so there's not much difference. As for maths, sem 0 foundation maths is a bit easy. Calculus in sem 1 and sem 2 are a bit harder. But you are constantly advised to put more effort and time on math subjects. And make sure to do your weekly tutorials on time. You will have opportunities to clear out any difficulties during the tutorial classes. It depends on you. If you feel like you need to put more effort, and you actually do it, you will be fine.

Enjoy.

Thanks for your feedback. Okay, so the tough parts only starts in sem 1 onwards?. What's tutorials? Session where we clear our doubts? How big is the tutorial class?. I suppose u alrd done your FIE? Doing which engineering course now?

Yes, sem 0 is considered to be a bit easier other sems. Tutorials classes are 1 hour classes held every week, during which the teacher discuss the previous week tutorials(exercises). The tutorial classes are held in smaller groups, like 20 students or so. Quizzes are held during tutorial classes. You will have about 3 quizzes for each math subject.

I am still doing my FIE. I was last year April intake, and my final sem is ending in end of may. I'll be doing either E&E or Mechatronic.

Okay okay. What happens if I can't answer the quiz? Hahaha. Lecturers will placed the students into which tutorial class?. Alright . You are doing the Meng I supposed? So upon graduation, you will be recognised as masters graduate?

Quiz only test you on topics you have already learned. If u did your exercises, you shouldn't have much problem. Students are put into diferrrent tutorial classes acording to ur class grouping assigned to you. You don't have to worry about that.

The MEng question is THE question of almost every engineering student in this school. However I'm not so sure of the answer yet. One of the vetaran seniors in the forum posted a detailed explanation on this. Try searching in this forum or previous versions of this forum. But you'll have plenty of time to think about this.

Anyone renting rooms/houses from pioneer century? =/ can't seemed to contact them

Yes they do. I have friends in there before but I don't know how strong they are/were.

Hello , may i know what is the requirements of admission for foundation of arts?? Is O level cert sufficient? and any foundation of arts students here to share their experiences??

Check the website la..

Thanks for the info . Would like to join the volleyball team. Btw, engineering students do their industrial training for how long and where?

I also wanna join.. Nightwalkerz is Malaysia player.

Internship is done during the summer break, which starts from early June till mid September. The minimum requirement (at least for mechanical) is 10 weeks, but most people did 12 weeks, which is equivalent to 3 months. Finding industrial placement is the responsibility of the student. At times, you'll receive emails from the lecturer in charge about some companies wanting interns and you have to follow up yourself.

Eh, speaking of internship, most of the companies require CGPA / GPA marks. How do I convert my percentage to CGPA / GPA. I've googled about it, but there is a lot of different calculation. Any idea?
