Lol great. It's not MSAD though. We call ourselves MOSAD. smile.gif If you have any other questions, just ask me. If you are doing Engineering, then that also can ask me, but I would know more about Mechanical Engineering and not Chemical.
Mornings is ok. Afternoons (after 5) is pretty hell along the whole road to Sunway Hospital/Pyramid/everywhere else. Public transport is available (i.e. a shuttle bus that goes all around the area).

That's great! Looking forward to joining you guys. By the way, do you around what time does the Federal Highway and LDP evening jams recede?

No you're not. There's only 1 shuttle operating in the Sunway area: factor in traffic jams, breakdowns and other unforeseen circumstances you might have to wait for an hour just for the shuttle. I wouldn't count on that.

Can anyone please let me know an estimated percentage of engineering students scoring above 75% in their exams? Does Monash follow the "bell-shaped curve" grading system in NUS? Are there "challenging" lecturers who love to give students an extra twist - thereby lowering the grade thresholds?

Hmm. Okay. Thanks for the information.

Yes, Monash does do the bell curve. And guess what? your current PVC had been famous in Clayton before when he was there as a lecturer years ago for flunking an entire class.

Which faculty/ies employ the bell-shape curve system? What is PVC? Would you mind elaborating? Thank you for taking the trouble to reply my post.

Based on my replies, what do you think?

One more thing: will there be any programmes by MOSAD during the orientation programme? Thank you!
