do u guys follow pmi's pmbok/pmp or prince2? for project management...

Hi guys!!!!! Im from business & commerce.... )))

new student? welcome to monash.

zstan.... i noe u...!! haha... im not new student... 1st yr 2nd sem... )

errr... okay.. should be 2nd year student already..

wah after exams ppl got time to revisit forum huh?

anyone know when is last day for reenrolment?

it's already over.

are you shitting me? fk...how to reenrol ar? pls halp

Not really sure but i can tell you there's a RM200 late enrollment fee.

acc & finance peeps, need some advice from the seniors.

im taking cost info, comm bank, com rep and ais next sem. reckon i should change it? since im taking fm during summer i have a choice of doing 1 less unit or substituting one of the units there with an easier elective(considering taking intro to islamic banking and finance).

reeally need good results next sem, so yeah, what do you guys recommend? can score well as long as i study consistently or would the sheer amount of assignments for these subjects screw me over?

taking the same subjects next sem as you. summer school as well? didnt u get an internship at kpmg or cimb?

well for my elective, i was thinking of macroeconomics as i heard it would be easier after the completion of mon n cap. Im considering islamic banking for my elective, but just want to choose something both useful and not risking pulling down my grades. what do you think?

yeah, but some stuff happened and i decided to resign, figured my time was better spent doing a summer sem than in a department super unrelated to my major.that, and i'm super paranoid bout my grades ><"

from what i;ve heard islamic is easy, but my friends who're doing macro said it isn't hard as well. so yeah, both would be decent choices, depends what you're more interested in. I'm most probably saving the elective for later(only have 1 ><"), that way i can change it once i decide for sure between a couple of my elective choices.

Are you doing fm for summer as well?

yeah most likely saving elective for sem 2 next year. wanted to do summer but decided to do an internship instead cos i got the offer i wanted. my friends are doing fm though, u will be seeing them i suppose.

haha this is kinda heavy for me!
comm bank is the easiest among these 4 units, if you could do well in mon n cap, comm bank shouldn't be a problem for u..haha the exam questions are like tutorial questions..

during my semester, the failure rate for cost info was abt 32%. Tutorials and mid term were just fine, but finals can be veeerrryyy different from what you have did in tuts. Start doing past year papers earlier, so that you can get yourself familiar with the format n questions.

comp rep is not easy also hahaha. I spent a lot of time to understand this, especially consolidation part, yang teruk sekali If you wanna score well in finals, make sure u can answer ur tut questions, coz the standard in finals is slightly easier than tuts, this is what the lecturer told us, and IT'S TRUE

AIS? good luck.

Hey, does any one how to get to Monash University from Subang Jaya KTM?

easiest mode of transport is cab... but there arent many cabs around that area...

i think from subang side can go to piramid area... then have to take cab or walk again...

LOL that was exactly my combination in Sem 1 2011. Like others mentioned, Cost Info & Comp Rep is toughest.

Cost Info.. even if you can do the tutes and past years, there's no consistency in the style the question is asked. Makes you think out of the box.

Comp Rep.. practice practice practice. Week 7 onwards is hell.

AIS, its ok actually. I think the class tests made me study consistently. Possible to score a D if you're consistent.

Comm bank, easiest among all.

shit... any chance of getting hd's for these subjects with consistent study? or is it just majorly impossible and would require studying 24/7? cos if its gonna be super hard, might as well do my elective... though i do want to get cost info over with asap.... sigh...

also, if you haven't sold your AIS books, i'll take em, first week of uni alright?

anyone knows any notable msians from monash?
