wats the diff between nottingham n curtin at sarawak?
both provide engineering courses too
but curtin is more cheaper
should i go to curtin or nottingham?

Just been to the campus last week. Everything seems cool. Including the dorm. Wondering if its just THAT clean on open days. lol.

Damn. They really know when to choose for open days.
Especially during Summer Breaks where most of the nigers are away.

But if I am not mistaken right now Foundation has a lesser intake of those from overseas. I think.

You sounds like the campus will be much nicer if those nigers are away? Why? Mind sharing your opinion?

I'll check with a friend of mine.

If we are about to say right... this is gonna turn into a nigger bashing thread.

hey, share a bit bout the environment..coz im going there too

I stayed on campus during my final year. I can guarantee you (as far as I remember) the dorm is always clean. Well, except for your room. That is up to you, when you want them to come over and clean it up.

Erm, generally, everything is okay. However, the only bad thing which I got to know from fren is that the refridgerator in the dorm is badly maintained. Students tend to leave their food there without realising that it has gone bad. The accumulation of bad foods is beyond imagination, lol trust me >.<..
anyway, i dont think staying in dorm is a wise choice , haha . Maybe you can for the first year, since you need time to settle down. But, mostly ppl will move out after 1st year due to many reasons but mostly because, internet fee is expensive, food is boring and etc ...
There are many vacant rooms/houses around the area. If anyone need information about this I can forward those advertistment in our uni email for reference. Pls PM .

Internet fee? How much 1 gotta pay per month?

i dont know whether did they change it. If not mistaken, it is about RM 70 per month for lowest speed 128Mbps. Furthermore, you can't download torrents file.

I'm the wrong person to ask, I stay off campus, and I spend like hell @_@ Rm600 for food only.

lol

mentos09, if you're able to withstand dog food, you should be able to do just about ok with the cafeteria's food. Oh and pay a premium for it. Those who man the cafeteria will always overcharge you anyway, as it is *UP TO THEM* to decide whether how many servings you have took.

Imagine this, people getting charged RM10 just for taking vegetables+meat+rice.
I myself had an experience of getting charged RM8 for ONLY one serving of beef and plain rice.

A professor FROM the university himself ALSO said that the food from the cafeteria 'tak boleh makan'. (From external source, takut later kena sue by uni for defamation case again. oh noes.. >.<)

There is one more 'high class' food lounge which is basically the same food (though lesser bones) and higher price. Oh, no rats/cockroaches there though. So, if you're filthy rich, you can eat there.


Other than those above, Nottingham Malaysia Campus Cafeteria ROCKS!!!!! Chili/tomato sauce is free so you can use them if you can't finish eating your rice.

PS: If you think I am extravagating, it's alright. I myself thought my seniors are *rich people who can't take decent food* too until I went there myself.
